Head Restraints V70-XC70 2000

posted by  someone claiming to be Dick Gunther on  Fri Mar 30 07:51 CST 2001 [RELATED]

After driving my 2000 V70 XC for a few thousand miles, I became annoyed at the way the front head restraints protrude so far forward. Worse yet, my wife found them so uncomfortable that she had the passenger restraint removed - which currently puts us in an unsafe situation.

I've asked several Volvo dealers if there is any fix to this problem, and they all say there is none.

Significantly, they admit to receiving many complaints. This makes me suspicious that there may exist a solution - such as an alternate restraint that fits the mounting, or a way to modify the existing restraint.

Has anyone else had this problem? More importantly, does anyone have any suggestions for a fix?
