Sonata NF (2006-10) :: Rear Seat Won't Fold Down
I have a 2006 Sonata, and surprisingly I don't think I have ever needed to fold down the rear seats. However, the other day I was bringing home a rug from Home Depot and discovered that I cannot get the right rear seat to fold down. The latch at the top of the seatback simply does not budge when I try to pull up on it to fold down the seat. I checked the locking mechanism, and it is not locked, so I don't know what the problem is.
I even flipped it back and forth several times between locked and unlocked, just in case something was stuck in that mechanism, but that didn't work. I also disconnected the middle seat belt, thinking that perhaps the seat is not designed to be folded down when the middle seat belt is in place, but that didn't work either. The latch on the left rear seat works just fine. Unfortunately it is the smaller of the two, and so is generally less useful.

I've just bought a 2005 XC90 and one of the rear (3rd row) seats is jammed in the uprigh position and will not fold down. The problem is that the lever does not release the base of the seat to slide back.
I have tried poking my fingers in and have examined the side that is working to see how the mechanism works. It would appear that the catches at each side that hold the base of the seat in position do not swivel around enough when the lever is lifted up. I have tried lifting the lever as far as I dare but I'm worried that if I try any harder something will break.
Elantra GD (2013+) :: Rear Fold Down Seat Cushion Gets Stuck
Elantra GT ... Most of the time I leave the right side rear seat folded down. Every once in a while I need to return it to the normal upright configuration. That goes fine, but then later when I try to fold the seat down again the cushion (the one that you sit on) gets stuck and I have a hard time folding the seat back down again. I yank on the strap, pulling forward, upward etc. and it doesn't do anything.
Eventually, and seemingly at random, the cushion pops loose and I can fold the seat down. I can't figure out where it is getting stuck. Can I lubricate the metal parts with silicone spray or Lemon Pledge or something (I wouldn't want to use anything greasy that would get on the seat cushions)? Yes, I read the owners manual and I am following the proper procedure for folding/unfolding the seat.
Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2011 - Rear Seat Won't Fold Down
I cant get my rear seat back to fold down anymore. I was on some very rough roads over the weekend and when I went to fold the seat back down the handle doesnt move. Is there a way to fold it without? Its almost like something is jammed which may be from the pounding the truck took over those roads.
View 3 RepliesSonata NF (2006-10) :: Passenger Seat Airbag Turning Off
Here's the situation. When my wife sits in the passengers seat, the "Passenger air bag off" light comes on half the time. It will turn off half of the time (meaning the air bag is on) but the other half of the time the light is on. It turns right off when I sit in the passengers side and stays off, the problem is only when she sits there.
I've had the recall fix on the passengers side seat done already, (before, the light was always on). I don't think it's her size either, she's 5'8" so it's not like she's too small. She's tried sitting in different positions, but we can't figure out what's doing it.

When I'm driving without a passenger, the passenger seat belt reminder light illuminates and stays on. Is there some sort of computer or weight sensor in the seat that trips this indicator light? I've noticed that sometimes, if I push down on the seat or move the seat forward or back, the light will go off. For the most part, however, it comes back on and remains on.

I have an 09 Limited with the dual automatic climate control. It finally got cool enough to start running the heater.

View 2 RepliesLexus RX 2004-09 :: 2006 RX330 - Cannot Roll Down Passenger Side Rear Window From Driver Side Panel
Awhile back I did get my battery replaced and I did reset my windows so they could be used from the driver side panel. As of now, I can roll down all of them from the driver side except for the passenger side rear (window diagonal from driver). The window does roll down from the door itself so the window isn't broken. The light on the driver window switch is lit green, not blinking. However, the light on the window switch on the passenger door is NOT lit and not blinking either. And yes, I did make sure the window lock was not on.
Could the switch, either passenger or driver door, be bad? Should the battery be disconnected and reconnected??
