BACKSEATS WITHOUT HEADRESTS Found in: Ford Focus, Mazda 6 (2008), Mercury Grand Marquis, Toyota Yaris Liftback (pictured), Porsche 911 From windows that roll halfway to the drivetrain hump splitting the middle rider in two, backseats are automotive nosebleed sections. Cupholders, HVAC controls and head-curtain airbags have upgraded them to mezzanine, but some manufacturers forget rear passengers have heads. Although whiplash is one of the most common passenger injuries, companies know the rear seat really is for stashing junk and people you don't want in front. That rear passengers haven't launched a mutiny on the front is a small wonder.
