Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Both front seat head restraints are angled too far forward. I am 6 ft tall and am not able to rest my back against the seat without the head restraint touch my head first and push it downward. This is the case, regardless of the height of the head restraint. The most non-uncomfortable position is with the restraint completely down, but at that position, it is very awkward. I am concerned that if I am rear-ended, I will get a cervical compression or related freak injury due to the unnatural angling.”
