Ongoing issue. Headrest angle is nonadjustable (only height is) and thus isn't safe for everyone. It pushes the head down and compromises spinal alignment. People with thinner torsos or who sit more upright are at the most risk. Options to fix this involve using padding on the back of the seat or bending the bars in the headrest, both of which would provide sufficient daily comfort, but could result in injury in an accident. A much better solution would be the ability to adjust the angle of the head restraint for proper positioning and associated instructions in the safety section of the car's manual.

Headrest and concaved seats are making my life miserable. I have a long commute in la traffic to/from work. I usually use the time to relax and decompress from a day of teacher, instead this time has become dreadful and painful experience. I've have back problems and next problem for years and I've recently realized its my stupid car! I just returned from a 3 week trip and my back problems were nonexistent during my travels. . . First day back home and driving and my back is killing me again! in hindsight, this has been the same for previous trips. Such a disappointment as I've been a loyal Honda driver.
