The forward tilt of the headrest forces my head forward in an unsafe and uncomfortable manner no matter what seat settings are used. I have sustained chronic neck and upper back health issues since I began driving my new car. The seat and headrest design force the driver into an unnatural posture that gives no back support and bumps the head forward and downward facing. The constant straining to while driving this car is not only unsafe but it is causing chronic injury. I do not have an unusual body type, I am fit and otherwise healthy and this aggravation does not happen in any of my other (older) vehicles.

The way the headrest is positioned, I constantly have neck pains while I drive. If I drive longer than 1 hour, than the pain lasts for days.
Headrests are too far forward. After an hour/hour and a half of driving they cause fatigue in the neck and upper shoulders. Headrests should be adjustable by driver for angle to seat. Fed regs have gone too far!.
