Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The front headrests (driver and passenger) do not stay in the forward position. This leaves a big gap between the back of the head and the headrest. In the event of a rear end collision, the head(s) would snap back and the headrest would not stop a neck injury.”
