Seat in the second row behind the driver side, tipped forward after a stop. My 4 y/o was in his car seat at the time. Exited a garage, turned right onto the local street, stopped at the light on the corner. My son, while still in his car seat, tilted forward onto the back of my driver side seat. It was a traumatic experience. There wasn't enough pressure and that must be why the seat belt didn't lock. Glad i wasn't…

The headrest (or more accurately, "head restraint") of the driver's seat forces my head to tilt forward in my normal sitting position. I am 6' 2" and like to practice good posture by sitting upright and straight. While sitting with my back straight, and not reclining the seat, my neck must bend forward about 15 degrees to conform to the headrest. Any bumps in the road result in the headrest tapping and pushing the…

This also makes it difficult to look straight ahead at the road. I have tried all vertical positions of the head restraint. I have tried adjusting the lumbar support. I have tried adding a neck support pillow. Nothing has worked. The owner's guide says, "the…
