| Description of the problem | The headrest in the vehicle is angled too far forward at the top to be comfortable for people who have to sit straight up in the seat! The angle on the headrest should be adjustable for those who have to sit straight up. As designed, it is far more comfortable to either remove the headrest or turn it around backwards. Both of which would lead to severe head and neck injuries in a rear end collision. |
