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.
