Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Rear seatbelted passengers hit their heads on non-cushioned rear pillars during normal driving conditions. on a bumpy road, both rear passengers can get painful bumps on their heads. at the very least the pillars should be cushioned. i spoke to the dealer, but they unfortunately could not recommend a solution. this reminds me of the obsolete hard/rigid dashboards on old cars.
