Seats Problems of Honda Crosstour

When driving on dark narrow roads, there is little or no visibility on my right side unless I turn on high beams--which I can't do if there is oncoming traffic on the other lane. If I go up an incline, I see what appears to be a dark shade that lowers to the point that I can see just a little at the bottom. As I pulled out of the dealer's garage at night, where I face a row of tall trees, there is a distinct separation of light and darkness across the trees, which the dealer said is exactly as it should be. It is very frightening when I experience the above, not being able to see a curb, ditch, etc. I thought it was my eyes the first time when alone, but since then, two passengers witnessed the same thing. If this "is as it should be", it is a very dangerous flaw. As for the seat and visibility issues, I am short and the seat is raised to its maximum. That and the little ledge outside the windshield often hinders my view of curbs, especially when pulling out of parking lit exits with curbs on both sides. As a result, I have jumped curbs a number of times. I have been sitting on cushions but that still doesn't help much--plus it affects my alignment with the lumbar support.

The seats in the 2012 Honda Crosstour I just leased are horrific. They are extremely uncomfortable and the positioning encourages poor postural habits and cannot be tolerated for any length of time. I took my car on a 3500 mile business trip and was crippled the entire time and almost couldn't drive home. I've put a large sum of $ down to lower my monthly payments and am now stuck with a car that's excruciating to drive. I've owned Honda's in the past and was very happy with their longevity, fuel economy and comfort overall. I never this coming-shame on you-Honda! I've also driven a 2012 pilot (for 4. 5 hours) and they were similar in design only not quite as uncomfortable-but still unacceptable! every attempt I've made to bolster, pad, lift, release or otherwise "fix" with padding, pillows, foam etc. Has been unsuccessful. While padding with minimal foam, it raises me in a position where my view is obstructed and my head hits the ceiling. I'm only 5'7" and not large. I have also enlisted the help of a local upholsterer to assist me but we've reached the end of ideas to assist me.
