Consumer Description

THE 3 REAR SEAT HEADRESTS MAKE IT ALL BUT IMPOSSIBLE TO SAFELY BACK THE CAR UP PLUS THEY OBSCURE THE VIEW OF FOLLOWING VEHICLES. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM AS I JUST PURCHASED THE CAR,AND TOOK DELIVERY BEFORE REALIZING HOW MAJOR THIS VISIBILITY ISSUE IS. THE HEADRESTS CANNOT BE REMOVED OR ADJUSTED. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THIS IS NOT AN ABSTRUSE OR DIFFICULT PROBLEM TO RECOGNIZE, NOR IS IT ONE MAN'S OPINION. ANY TIME THERE IS 70%+ VIEW OBSTRUCTION IT MAKES PERFECT SENSE TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. GM SHOULD CERTAINLY RECOGNIZE THIS MOST OBVIOUS MISTAKE WHICH NEVER SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED TO BEGIN WITH. *TR
