GMC Terrain: Seats and Restraints / Head Restraints
The vehicle’s front seats have adjustable head restraints in the outboard seating positions.
Warning
With head restraints that are not installed and adjusted properly, there is a greater chance that occupants will suffer a neck/spinal injury in a crash. Do not drive until the head restraints for all occupants are installed and adjusted properly.
If your vehicle has rear head restraints that fold down, always return them to the full upright position whenever an occupant is seated in the seat.
Adjust the head restraint so that the top of the restraint is at the same height as the top of the occupant's head. This position reduces the chance of a neck injury in a crash.
