| Pontiac file #c02631710. i called the dealership and pontiac customer care within the first two months of owning the car, received a file number, but no follow-up by pontiac as promised. i have a concern that the front seat headrests will not provide adequate protection in the event of a rear-end collision. the headrest is not close enough to prevent your head from tilting back all the way, as if there were no headrest at all.*ak | |||
