2010 Toyota RAV4 Seats Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	875057
Internal NHTSA #	10419076
Manufacurer	TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION
Brand	TOYOTA
Model	RAV4
Model Year	2010
File date	05/08/11
Component	SEATS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The front headrests on this vehicle, both passenger-side and driver-side, are situated much too far forward. The headrest pushes on the middle of one's head, causing a chin-forward / head-forward posture, which is unnatural and ergonomically incorrect. There are numerous forums and message boards on the internet on which drivers of newer vehicles such as this one are complaining about extreme pain being caused by these headrests. In my case in particular, the malpositioning of the headrest is causing vertebrae in my neck, along with my upper two ribs, to be pushed out of place. This condition causes extreme pain, headaches, and fatigue. Additionally, the middle of the head being pushed so far forward, and no support for the neck, would seem to me a very dangerous combination if a high-speed crash were to occur. This positioning seems that it would be extremely dangerous to the neck vertebrae.
