Consumer Description

THE DRIVER SEAT IS CAUSING SERVER LOWER BACK PAIN REGARDLESS OF THE POSITION OF THE SEAT. I TRIED ALL WAYS I COULD ADJUST THE SEAT BUT THE CURVATURE IN THE SEAT IS PUSHING AGAINST MY LOWER BACK. I HAVE BEEN EASY ON THE ZOOM ZOOM EFFECT BUT IN ACCELERATION AND BREAKING, IT JUST HURTS MY LOWER BACK.
