2018 DODGE DURANGO — Complaint #2115504

Open-data reference.

NHTSA Complaint about SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:HEAD RESTRAINT filed July 30, 2025

NHTSA complaint #2115504 (ODI reference 11677233) concerns a 2018 DODGE DURANGO and was filed on July 30, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on July 24, 2025. The vehicle had 108,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Florida based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as seats:front assembly:head restraint, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.

The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.

Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same DODGE DURANGO cohort independently describe similar seats:front assembly:head restraint failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2018 DODGE DURANGO shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
