I have a 2007 jeep compass. the rear headrests are not removable and if i install my child forward facing car seat it leaves a gap in between the headrest and seat. this compromises children's safety. i called the dealership i bought it at and they refused to help or even acknowledge that there is a problem. i understand most jeeps have this problem as well. *tr
