Foam/cushion is gone from headrest, and a metal piece is sticking out. this could cause head injuries in event of a crash. cause unknown. dealer notified.*ak

Both seat backs collapsed when our honda was rear-ended. we (my wife and i) were stopped in a traffic jam (due to an accident ahead) on a downtown freeway (i-20 in monroe, la). we were rear-ended and knocked into the left lane where we travelled down the lane for several car lengths, then hit the guard rail and a car in the left lane (by that time, at a slow speed). the seat backs of both seats collapsed and we were laid back. i was driving and pulled up with the steering wheel to maintain control of the car, although we were in a skid. the head rest of the driver's seat also broke away from the seat back. my wife and i suffered only soft tissue damage in our necks and lower backs (strains and bruises), but i was wondering if the seat backs should have collapsed the way they did. the interior of the car was in tact and the rear crumple zones worked great.*ak
