Airbag on other Grand Caravan years
No other Grand Caravan model year has enough reports of airbag for a sheet of its own. See every Grand Caravan year.
What this problem usually is
Airbag complaints split into a few kinds. The most common is an airbag warning light that won't go out. Others involve the passenger seat sensor switching the passenger bag off with an adult sitting there, an airbag that didn't deploy in a crash, or one that went off without a crash at all. A large share also come from owners waiting on a recall part.
What got replaced
Owners who name the part that was replaced mention the occupant sensor (8 reports).

What owners wrote
“Passenger headrest airbag went off /exploded open while I was parking the van in my driveway. No one was sitting in the passenger seat so no one was injured. Yes, you can inspect it. I called dodge but they said there were no recalls. No one has inspected it. No warning lights.”
Filed Sep 6, 2025
“Airbag light came on passenger side on door trying to see if it was recalled at all. No accident in this van is it supposed to do that. Was being getting the van worked on.”
Filed Jun 15, 2023
“Seatbelt and buckle assembly caused the airbag light to come on indicating that airbags will not deploy in an accident.”
Filed Aug 20, 2021
“Came out to vehicle to drive and noticed driver side headrest was deployed forward and came apart. The vehicle was not in an accident and there were no prior alarms or notifications on the dash system to indicate this would happen. Luckily the headrest didn't deploy while someone was driving. The Dodge dealer says this repair or replacement is not their responsibility. This issue has not currently been resolved.”

Should you keep driving it?
This page can't tell you that. 2 of 46 reports involved a crash and 4 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.
File your own report with NHTSA. Complaint counts are how a problem gets an investigation. How reports land on this sheet.
