“My child, who is 11, can not sit in the rear seats of this truck without the shoulder harness sliding across his neck, a terrible situation should an accident occur. His head is forced downward by the head rest in either the up or down position. Given the position of the head rest, even a booster seat is ineffective. The vehicle is equipped with power easy entry option which makes removing the headrests impossible (vehicles without this option have removable head rests). …”
