What owners wrote
The contact owned a 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan. The contact stated while driving at 25-35 MPH with someone in the front passenger seat a semi-truck crashed into the rear of the vehicle. The vehicle spun seven times and continuously hit the concrete barriers on each side of the highway. The contact stated that the body of the vehicle shifted 5 inches away from the frame. The air bags were deployed but were deflated.
The passenger seat headrest deployed, the passenger was adjusting the seat to move back and adjusting the angle of the seat. There was no car accident to activate this action. It was startling to hear this and see this. It is highly defective in it's activision mechanism. The dealer wants to charge to fix this in the $1000. I see no logical reason for the head rest and now I can see if it deployed on the driver's seat, causing an accident. Consumer stated head rest has not been repaired.
