Description of the problem | I have a 2018 dodge journey i had the driver sest reclined all the way back to vacuum. I lift the handle to put seat up and it flew forward hard. After turning on vehicle noticed airbag light is on. Took to dodge they said its the driver headrest the wires were pulled out and activated airbag light. The warranty wont cover it because they said the wires got ripped off from someone intentionally pulling the seat off. The seats are dangerous as fast as they flip forward. There must have been a defect if the wires got unattached from just it swinging forward. |
