“The angle of the headrest are so extreme that there is always terrible pressure on my neck. The headrest is also so large that it blocks my view when looking over my shoulder for traffic. I'm afraid that I will miss a car because it is blocked out by the headrest. This is very dangerous! I've already had to swerve unexpectedly on 2 occasions because I couldn't see a vehicle.”
