What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 jeep grand cherokee. While proceeding through a four way stop at approximately 25 MPH, a vehicle failed to yield and crashed into the driver side of the contact's vehicle. The rear door and frontal driver and passenger side air bags failed to deploy. The contact sustained lacerations to the face and injuries to the hip, legs, and neck. The front passenger suffered injuries to the right side. The rear passenger sustained injuries to the left side and face.
The passenger side active headrest restraint on my 2015 jeep grand cherokee deployed while parked in my garage unoccupied. I took the vehicle to a local chrysler dealer - they checked the computer and headrest and determined that the vehicle was not in an accident and a failed locking mechanism is what caused it to deploy. The dealer agreed to contact chrysler on my behalf for a resolution. I was told by the dealer that chrysler agreed to pay for half the cost of the repair - approximately $350.
