“I got my new Toyota RAV4 2013 early in 2013. On the second day I owned it I noticed that the three tall and broad rear seat head rests obscured at least one-third of my view out the rear window. I took them out and have kept them out so I can have clear vision to the rear. It never occurred to me that the tall and broad head rest on the passenger seat also obscured my view out to the right. I side-swiped another car early in august, afterward telling the insurance adjuster that I did not see the car at all, had no idea of where it had come from. …”
