2001 Ford F-150 Seats Front Assembly Head Restraint Problems, Complaints and Defects

Model	F-150
Model Year	2001
File date	25/04/25
Component	SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:HEAD RESTRAINT
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	"my ford f-150 supercrew 4-door pickup truck does not have head restraints in the rear 60/40 split bench seat. This is a safety concern as rear seat passengers will hit their heads on the rear glass in a crash. New trucks of this model are now redesigned and have rear head restraints. Models manufactured earlier do not. When i called ford customer service to complain of the safety concern of having no rear head restraints and to ask for the new redesigned seats, they said they would not replace the seats. They are ignoring owners with models manufactured before the newly redesigned rear seats. Ford also redesigned the front seats to now include head restraints instead of the old design of taller integrated head restraints. I believe this is also a safety concern in that i cannot adjust the front seat head restraint to properly protect me in a crash. I also wish to have new front seat captain's chairs from the newly designed model's front seats." *ak
