| My husband and i just finished and extensive search for a new car. i found very few cars that were comfortable to me due to the active head restraints. i am five feet four inches tall and i like my seat to be more upright. unfortunately, when you put the seats in this position, the head rest forces your head down, chin to chest. this would not be a problem if i were a man with large shoulder muscles or if i liked my seat to be in a reclining position. my reaction to the restraints is that they feel very unsafe. when i checked the federal web site, i found that the government tested only for the size of an average man. will the rest of us die or sustain incredible injury? i am really worried about this, especially after reading that the restraints come further forward in the event of a rear collision. can you check into this problem? i have bought a honda civic, but i will have to have a pillow behind my shoulders to keep my head from being in an impossible position for driving. this is not about an accident but i am afraid their will be problems. i will put today's date in your form to make it work. *jb | |||

| Head rest pushes the head forward until it is an unnatural neck position. this should be very stressful on a long drive. *jb | |||
