Description of the problem | This car has the worst backseat headrest. They're too high and talk and obstruct the rear window when driving. Creates a terrible blindspot on both sides of the back window. Actually got into a car accident in a parking lot pulling out of my spot. Since i did not have the clear visibility the driver behind me pulled out and i couldn't react in time. |
