Description of the problem | My previous crew cab ford pick up, a 1996 model, has rear seat head restraints. After purchasing this new ford crew cab pick up, an 2001 model, i noticed no head restraints for rear passengers and am very concerned a family member or friend head will smash rear glass in an accident. Please help as i know the rear window is inches from rear passengers heads and if i am rear ended the rear passengers heads will be smashed into the rear window. Why has ford not supplied rear head restraints on this truck when they did on the other? Please help! |
