BRZ

  • 10,000 miles
The head restraint is excrutiatingly uncomfortable. The angle is digging into the back of my head, and there is no way to adjust it. I now get neck pain just sitting in my car. I understand that new regulations require this, but it trades slight safety benefit in the relatively unlikely case of an accident with almost guaranteed neck/spine damage on a daily basis. It is horrible and causing me pain, and I will now have to trade the car in for an older model vehicle that doesn't have the forward-jutting head restraints. Please fix this regulation!!!
