The headrest worked when I got the car and the headrest stopped working it won-??t stay open it went down to fold into the floor and it won-??t lock in position so the seat is unusable because the headrest is locked/ broken in the down position that has it hit right at the middle of neck for some that 5-??2 and it would mostly break someone-??s neck if an accident occurred

Head restraints in back seat prevent tall child car seats from being installed without removal of head restraint. My daughter took 2 car seats to Seattle airport and rented a Pacifica. An online you tube video showed how to take off the back panel, release some cable to remove head restraint which they thought was a bad idea in a rented car. In my 2021 Pacifica, the front seat head restraint is so far forward (yes i know about the ratchet release) that the physical therapy posture lectures for a rounded shoulder head forward older person, that you can not move your head to the proper position without hitting the head rest. So I turned mine around so it faces backwards but the catch cog doesn't work. However it can't fly up and off since it hits the ceiling. I used some vinyl tubing as a spacer to set the height right See photos. My new 2022 Ford transit head restraints are vertical and work perfectly. 2 photos show mine backwards. one photo shows original profile, one photo show Ford Transit.

My 9 year old child was sitting in the driver side middle captain chair. The child was not touching any of the seat levers. The seat back dropped back and then pushed him foward. The child used their body to push it back some until I could safely pull over. I could not get the seat to lock. The lower lever had no tension. I took it to the dealer and paid a deductible to get it repaired under warranty. Their invoice states that the Seatback headrest release cable came apart.
