NHTSA Complaint #10628472 — 2009 HONDA PILOT

HEADRESTS (HEAD RESTRAINTS) IN ALL THE NEW CARS I HAVE SAT IN ARE EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE. I AM A 5'10" WOMAN. THE HEAD RESTRAINTS PUSH MY HEAD AND NECK FORWARD. I WAS ADVISED TO RECLINE MY SEAT, BUT THIS IS NOT ERGONOMICALLY CORRECT FOR ME AND CAUSES ME HIP AND LOWER BACK PAIN. AFTER SPENDING YEARS AND MUCH MONEY GETTING MY SPINE IN GOOD ALIGNMENT I AM NOT ABOUT TO HAVE IT RUINED BY RIDING IN MY CAR. THE CAR INSURANCE COMPANIES MIGHT FEEL THAT THEY ARE COVERING THEIR **** BY HAVING THESE NEW RULES/RESTRICTIONS, BUT I HOPE THE HEALTH INSURANCE COMPANIES CATCH ON SOON THAT THEY WILL BE PAYING MANY MORE CLAIMS FOR CHIROPRACTIC AND OSTEOPATHIC ADJUSTMENTS, X-RAYS AND PHYSICAL THERAPY. THESE HEAD RESTRAINTS ARE RIDICULOUS AND UNCOMFORTABLE AND THEREFORE ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO REMOVE THE HEAD RESTRAINT ENTIRELY, OBVIOUSLY NEGATING AND POSSIBLE BENEFIT TO THE DRIVER OR THE CAR INSURANCE COMPANIES. *TR
