“Chrysler/fiat has issued a TSB recommending the wiring harness inside seat to be replaced. This should be a safety recall not a TSB since it has to do with airbags. It's a safety hazard. This needs to be done before someone is seriously injured or dies.”

“The back of the seat does not stay secured in place. Heavy acceleration may cause the seat to recline on its own”

“My vehicle has been recalled but Iâm noticing problems with my transmission when in switching gears. Sometimes it shifts into neutral, my radio shuts off periodically and my seat fills a lot thinner then the passenger seat.

Should you keep driving it?

This page can't tell you that. 5 of 33 reports involved a crash and 5 people were hurt. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
