ON DECEMBER 26, 2014 I WAS REAR ENDED IN MY 2011 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE AS I WAS MAKING A RIGHT TURN ONTO MY ROAD. I WAS SLOWED DOWN TO APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH OR LESS AS I WAS TURNING AND GOT HIT BY A LARGE PICK-UP TRUCK. FIRST OF ALL, I AM HAPPY THAT MY JEEP TOLERATED THE FORCE FROM THE REAR END COLLISION AS WELL AS IT DID, AND IT EVEN TOOK BOUNCING OFF A GUIDE RAIL PRETTY WELL TOO; HOWEVER, THE SAFETY FEATURE IN THE HEADREST IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. SINCE I HAD NO FRONT OR SIDE IMPACT, NONE OF MY AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. HOWEVER, THE AIRBAG IN THE HEADREST MADE THE HEADREST SLAM MY HEAD FORWARD CAUSING WHIPLASH AND A NECK INJURY. I UNDERSTAND THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A SAFETY FEATURE; HOWEVER, IT CAUSED ME MORE INJURY. I WAS NEVER AWARE THAT MY CAR HAD THIS FEATURE. SEVERAL DAYS AFTER THE ACCIDENT, I DECIDED TO LOOK IN MY OWNER'S MANUAL AND THERE IS NOTHING IN THERE REGARDING THE HEADRESTS. IT ONLY MENTIONS THE FRONT AIRBAGS, CURTAIN AIRBAGS AND SEAT AIRBAGS. MY INSURANCE ADJUSTOR WASN'T EVEN FAMILIAR WITH THIS FEATURE WHEN HE CAME OUT TO INSPECT THE DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE. IF I WOULD HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THE AIRBAG IN THE HEADREST AND THE INJURY THAT IT COULD CAUSE, I WOULD HAVE HAD THE HEADRESTS REMOVED FROM MY CAR AND REPLACED THEM WITH STANDARD HEADRESTS! SINCE THE ACCIDENT, I AM DEALING WITH HEADACHES AND AM GOING TO PHYSICAL THERAPY FOR MY NECK INJURY. I SERIOUSLY HOPE NO ONE ELSE SUFFERS FROM THIS "SAFETY FEATURE" THAT I WASN'T EVEN MADE AWARE OF AS THE OWNER. *TR

I HAVE RECEIVED 3 RECALL NOTICES REGARDING MY 2011 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE (NHTSA 14V154, 14V530 AND 14V391). AFTER RECEIVING NOTICE 14V154 I CONTACTED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP (LARRY H MILLER IN BOISE IDAHO) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS WERE BACK ORDERED WITH NO DATE WHEN PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE. THIS INFORMATION WAS REPEATED IN SEPTEMBER. HAVING NOW RECEIVED 3 RECALLS I ATTEMPTED TO SCHEDULE TO HAVE ALL 3 RESOLVED AT THE SAME TIME. HOWEVER, WHEN I TRIED TO SCHEDULE A SERVICE, I'M TOLD THAT, WHILE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE, THEY WILL NOT ORDER THE PARTS UNTIL I BRING MY VEHICLE IN FIRST. WHEN I ASKED WHY THEY STATED THAT THEY NEEDED THE VIN NUMBER. HOWEVER, THEY NOT ONLY HAVE MY VEHICLE INFORMATION ON RECORD AND I HAD THE VIN AVAILABLE DURING THE CALL. I ASKED TO COMPLETE THE SERVICE ORDER ON THE PHONE AND WAS TOLD IT WAS "POLICY" TO SCHEDULE SERVICE APPOINTMENTS ONLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PRESENT AND ONLY THEN WILL THEY ORDER PARTS. THIS DEALERSHIP HAS EXCEEDED THE REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME TO COMPLETE THE REPAIRS AND IS CREATING AN UNREASONABLE BARRIER TO COMPLETING THE SERVICES. *TR

I'VE BEEN RECEIVING RECALL NOTICES ON A JEEP I PURCHASE LAST FEBRUARY (USED) ON RECALLS P14, P36 AND P54. I CONTINUOUSLY CALL JEEP TO HAVE THESE ISSUES REPAIRED AND AM TOLD THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE, JEEP HASN'T SHIPPED OR THEY JUST HAVE TOO MANY RECALLS. HOW DO I GET MY RECALLS FIXED BEFORE I DO HAVE A CRASH?? I AM CONCERNED. *TR
