THE HEAD RESTRAINTS AND SEAT CONFIGURATIONS OF THESE HONDA CIVICS CAUSE SEVERE BACK PAIN, AS DIAGNOSED BY MY DOCTOR AND CHIROPRACTOR. I HAVE ONLY OWNED THE CAR FOR SIX WEEKS AND HAVE SPENT > 20 HOURS GETTING XRAYS, PHYSICAL THERAPY, AND VARIOUS RE-ALIGNMENT TREATMENT BECAUSE OF THE UNSAFE AND HARMFUL CONFIGURATION OF THESE SEATS. PER THE HONDA REPRESENTATIVE, THEY STATED THAT THESE HEAD RESTRAINTS AND SEAT SHAPES COMPLY WITH SAFETY REQUIREMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE AIRBAGS. HOWEVER, NHSTA AND OTHERS HAVE FAILED TO REALIZE THAT IN AN ATTEMPT TO MITIGATE "HYPOTHETICAL WHIPLASH", THEY ARE PROMOTING ACTUAL, WIDESPREAD, SEVERE DAMAGE TO DRIVERS.
