| Description of the problem | Headrest on 2013 altima hurts the back of my head when i drive the car. If it hurts in normal driving i can't imagine what the head injury is going to be like if i get hit while driving this car. The head rests should be adjustable so that they can be fitted to shorter people. No amount of up down adjusting on the head rest height works to relieve the issue. |
