Front Seat Recliner problem #1

I was in a car accident driving a 99 chevy Prizm going approximately 45 mph. I was rear-ended on the passenger right side rear corner and then immediately again on the passenger front right corner. The driver's seat broke. It was all the way back in the reclined position. The only injury I experienced was whiplash.

Seats problem #2

Seats are designed poorly/located too close to the sides of the car causing difficulty in reaching seat belts/head rest design protrude too far forward/seats do not adjust in height. Mjs.
