| 2011 | 0 | The headrests on the two front seats are a NIGHTMARE! I had to recline my driver's seat slightly because the headrest pushes my head and neck so far forward, it was causing me to have pain and spasms in my neck and shoulders! I don't know who signed of on this design, but they were clearly asleep that day! I've heard this issue has been addressed in newer models and (I think) there is a newer option for which you can swap out these awful headrests. I may look into that... see full Buick Enclave review |

I tested both the Mini Cooper and Volvo C30. The C30, by far, is the most comfortable and easy to find a great driving position. Driving from Los Angeles to San Francisco without any back or shoulder fatigue! see full Volvo C30 review |
