Consumer Description

HEADREST'S FIXED, FORWARD PROTRUDING ANGLE CAUSES ME DRIVER FATIGUE AND SHAPE OF SEATS CAUSES NUMBNESS. THESE AFFECT DRIVER REACTION AND POSE RISK. I WOULD MUCH PREFER THE PRE-2009 HEADRESTS BECAUSE I WAS ABLE TO STAY ALERT AND NOT HAVE MY HEAD SHOVED FORWARD IN AN UNCOMFORTABLE, NON-ERGONOMIC MANNER THAT CAUSES FATIGUE WITHIN JUST MINUTES OF DRIVING. PLEASE STAND UP TO THE INSURANCE COMPANIES.
