What owners wrote

When driving home from work the car started malfunctioning wrong , accelerating by itself and I started to smell smoke when I pulled over to the side I started smelling smoke as soon I exited the vehicle it started flaming. Everything in my vehicle was burnt the fire department came and stated I should look up any recalls they said it was electrical. I bought the vehicle 30 days ago , dealership will not help neither the loan company I'm stuck with a vehicle who was sold with electrical problems almost to my life.

September 2025 Fire

Driving on freeway coming back from payson area and we heard a pop noise at drivers seat headrest and saw that the headrest popped open. We didn't know it was an airbag until a dodge dealer said that it was the airbag and it's not under warranty and can't take care of it. Kept asking if we were in a collision when the headrest broke and we were not! We were driving at about 65 miles an hour when that happened. We were also told that our motor mounts have to be replaced and the vehicle is only 3 years old.
