The front seat passenger headrest broke open (the back of the headrest separated from the front which should only happen in a rear end collision) without cause. It appears to be a known problem with this seat headrest as noted on other Dodge vehicles which have recalls. If somebody was sitting in the sit when this happened, it would have resulted in a head and neck injury.

The headrest on the passenger seat popped out while the car was in the garage. I’m reading that this is a known issue that can cause great harm had someone been sitting in the car at the time.
