One complaint many users have is the uncomfortable position of the front headrests, which forces the head forward in a position many find unnatural. Just like our YouTuber, who found a very simple way to solve the problem: pull out the headrest and reinsert it upside down, meaning putting the back in the front position for resting the head.

It's true, it's definitely more comfortable because it creates more space. But headrests are designed that way for a reason: to prevent whiplash.

If there is space between your head and the headrest, in the event of a collision, your neck will move violently back and forth, potentially hitting the headrest. If your neck is pressed against the headrest - and you have your seatbelt fastened - your neck will hardly move, and nothing serious will happen.
