NHTSA Complaint #10551661 — 2011 BUICK LACROSSE

I RECENTLY BOUGHT A USED 2011 BUICK LACROSSE CXL. I LIKE THE CAR A LOT BUT AFTER A FEW TRIPS I NOTICED THAT MY NECK AND HEAD POSITION WAS CONSTANTLY BEING PUSHED FORWARD MAKING ME MORE AND MORE UNCOMFORTABLE. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE HEADREST IS SO LARGE THAT IT IS DIFFICULT TO SEE BEHIND ME ESPECIALLY TO THE LEFT FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC OR OBSTACLES. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE MANUFACTURERS WERE REQUIRED BY NHTSA TO MAKE THE HEADRESTS TOO FAR FORWARD AND TOO LARGE FOR "SAFETY" REASONS. IF SO, YOU HAVE SUCCEEDED IN MAKING MY TIME BEHIND THE WHEEL BOTH UNCOMFORTABLE AND LESS SAFE BECAUSE MY NECK IS CONSTANTLY BEING PUSHED FORWARD AND I CAN'T SEE BEHIND ME VERY WELL. I DOUBT THAT YOU WILL RESPOND OR, MORE UNLIKELY, MAKE CHANGES TO IMPROVE THIS PROBLEM BUT I HAVE TO DO SOMETHING TO EXPRESS MY OUTRAGE AT WHAT YOU HAVE DONE. *TR
