Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The headrest (or more accurately, "head restraint") of the driver's seat forces my head to tilt forward in my normal sitting position. I am 6' 2" and like to practice good posture by sitting upright and straight. While sitting with my back straight, and not reclining the seat, my neck must bend forward about 15 degrees to conform to the headrest. Any bumps in the road result in the headrest tapping and pushing the back of my head. I feel like a bobble-head! This causes me constant irritation and distracts me from driving. To compensate for this awkward headrest design, i must recline my seat backward further than i find comfortable, or slouch, which is also uncomfortable. I have heard many tall and short people complain of this same issue, for this vehicle and many other new models of various brands. An adjustable angle on the headrest would be excellent. Alternatively, offering a choice of headrests with various angles would be acceptable. The standard headrest seems to be angled forward approximately 25 degrees. How about offering additional headrest that have less of an angle, like 20, 15, 10 and 5 degrees?
