I am writing to formally escalate an ongoing and serious safety issue involving my 2019 Dodge Durango R/T, VIN [XXX], which was originally transported from Canada and is now registered in New York, United States. I have experienced repeated incidents involving sudden loss of engine power, multiple dashboard warning lights, and extensive ABS-related fault codes. Despite multiple visits to my local dealership and substantial diagnostic expenses, the underlying issue remains unresolved. My vehicle is now immobilized at my home, and I am being asked to incur additional expenses for further diagnosis and repairs without a clear explanation of the underlying failure or whether it may be related…

The driverside headrest has spontaneously deployed, it is due to an internal failure where a plastic retention bracket cracks. It is a known issue for earlier model years, but 2019 has been left out of the warranty extension (2018 is the end of the current coverage period). This is the same headrest design/part that is covered for repair in earlier years, and is an $1,100 replacement. We would like this repair to be considered for the warranty coverage as it is the same issue being acknowleged and addressed for earlier model years.

The vehicle fails to start reliably. I have made all the necessary repairs in an attempt to have the car to start reliably. I have replaced items that the average owner would think are normal wear-and-tear items around the starting system. I have also replaced items that the average owner would not think would wear out and need replacing. All of this work was done out of pocket. A warranty or recall covered none of the work. Yet the car still does not start reliably. I believe this is a safety issue because it could lead to the vehicle losing power on the road and leaving occupants stranded. This is not a normal issue. This must be a manufacturer's issue. Producing and selling a vehicle…

The driver and passenger front seat seat belts do not retract. They hang loose when on and if the windows are open will even loosen up more when wind catches them. This is an extreme safety concern if an accident were to happen the seat belt would not hold us in place.

Headrest Explosion in my driveway parked. Its confirmed by my dealer and its in their possession while I have a rental. No accident had occurred and dealer inspected and no accident had been detected. No indication that this would have happened previously. Im in fear of my safety and have 2 special needs children that rides in my vehicle regularly. The dealership is wanting for me the client to pay $1500 and refuse to comply with "good faith". My agent stated they would try to do on "goodfaith" but days later stated I have to pay regardless of the company malfunction. This could've happened while driving with me or my children. Im just glad that it happened while parked. It was stated to me…
