I have an '05 Santa Fe and the rear seats won't stay upright. They'll go back to the way back, but not totally reclined position. We'll pull them forward, but when someone sits in them they'll fall back. It sounds like the gears that lock them are stripped. Anyone else?

Replying to: dpomper (Jun 15, 2009 10:25 am) Once we cleaned out the metal bits, the seat back locked in place and was perfectly fine. The reason that the seat locks in the folded position is that the catch is on the upper half of the seat, and is rotating on the fixed gear (the gear is part of the seat base) enough to get past the metal bits stuck in the teeth. |
