Airbag warning light by model year
What owners say
The contact owns a 2013 Chrysler 200. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel was difficult to turn, and the vehicle lost motive power. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the vehicle was started, and the air bag warning light was illuminated. In addition, the contact stated that the horn failed to function as intended. The contact later noticed that the driver's and passenger's headrest air bags had deployed unintendedly. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic twice; however, the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or the dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 99,879.
The Active Headrest Restraint (AHR) failed. It deployed without cause and was inspected by the dealer. The issue was a small piece of plastic used in the manufacturing process. My wife was driving the car and out of nowhere a loud noise and she was struck in the back of the head. Luckily, she was driving at a slower speed and no other cars were around, she nearly went completely into the other lane. Had other cars been on the road, there would have been an accident. We took the car to the dealership when it happened with the passenger headrest a couple of years ago and the guy told us he ordered the parts to fix it, but it would take six months. We went back and he no longer works there an never ordered any parts. Since only my wife drives this car, we just let it go about the passenger headrest and moved on. I believe this is in regards to recalls S61 & T56. Both headrests are deployed and cannot be reset. To make matters worse, now the airbag warning light is illuminated at all times. An issue with airbags can be very serious and very dangerous if not addressed. After speaking on the phone with FCA customer care, I was told this was fixed in 2014 (2-3 years before the recall was issued) & that it was out of warranty. I do not believe it was fixed, maybe someone inspected the car, but it was not repaired. The dealer wants to charge me $1,000 to replace the headrests and that is something I cannot do. The recall site states "Safety recalls include any problem encountered with an FCA US LLC product related to the safe operation of the vehicle or the safety of the occupants. FCA US LLC will correct the problem, at no charge, even if the vehicle is out of warranty and you are not the original owner." this clearly does not matter to Chrysler. I have no other choice but to drive the vehicle with the airbag warnings on. I am hoping you can help. This is my last resort. It has not been inspected by the manufacturer and there were no warning lights prior to this.

My headrests were replaced due to a recall however, once they were replaced my check airbag light has come on and will not go off. I was brushed off and told that it would turn off after a day or so. It has not and now I'm being told (by the dealership) that I can bring it in however, I'll be charged $500.00 to repay and replace. I had no issues or indication prior to my headrest being replaced leading me to believe that this is no fault of my own. This is a safety hazard and the lack of concern from dealerships service department has been not only disheartening but had me very concerned about the safety of my family and myself serving my only means of transportation in fear that should I be an accident, will my airbags deploy.
Just purchased the car and less than 24 hours after buying, the car sits dead. Noticed there was no coolant in the overflow so I added coolant and once I got into my vehicle it had the battery light illuminated. I drove it about 2 miles and the traction control light came on, the airbag light came on, the electrical system light came on, the ABS light came on, and the check engine light came on before my vehicle completely died and has not moved since! I jumped it but it stalled out before I could even get the hood closed and drive anywhere. I replaced the battery but the issue here is the alternator! Why hasn't this been recalled yet??
I got a 2013 chrysler 200 from mega auto outlet in stafford,va.3-30-20 and tried to take it back to mega auto outlet. I called the dealership the next day about why there wasn't a inspection sticker on the windshield and why was there some much noise from the rear. The salesman then told me that there was a inspection sticker on the windshield and told him there wasn't and I was going to bring the car back because it was illegal to sell a car without a inspection sticker. But he refused to take the car back and said to me if I was to bring the car back that the police would there and not to bring car back. I took to local garage to find out what was wrong with the car because it was making noises in the rear of car and the airbag light was on. I found tout that there was all kinds of problems with the 2013 chrysler 200 and it was unsafe to drive. I don't know what else to do?
