1 Front Seat Head Restraint problem

Failure Date: 11/14/2014

The headrests are totally uncomfortable in my new Cr-v. I've had to purchase a lumbar support & neck rest (pillow), in an attempt to solve the horrible design of the seat/headrest. It's tilted too far forward & if I attempt to rest my back into the seat, my head is bent forward. No adjustment is able to fix the problem; it only goes up & down. The chevy traverse (which I rented a few months ago) has a perfect headrest. I was able to adjust it up/down & backward/forward!.

2 Front Seat Head Restraint problem

Failure Date: 05/30/2014

The headrest in the vehicle is angled too far forward at the top to be comfortable for people who have to sit straight up in the seat! the angle on the headrest should be adjustable for those who have to sit straight up. As designed, it is far more comfortable to either remove the headrest or turn it around backwards. Both of which would lead to severe head and neck injuries in a rear end collision.
