I just purchased a 2010 yaris 4 door, and I am wondering if anyone else has run into the problem with the head rests in the front for shorter people. My wife is 5ft 2 and feels as though her head is pushed forward because the head rests are angled forward. My question is has anyone else run into the same problem, and if so any suggestions. Thanks for the help.

My wife is about 5'3" and has not complained about it. Perhaps you could try raising it up some and see if that helps.

Remove the headrest, turn it around and reinsert. Now it will angle slightly backwards.

You'll lose the locking mechanism that holds it in place for vertical adjustment, but it's a fairly snug fit anyway and should hold any height without it.
