2007 SE V6. The drivers side headrest will continue to extend to the full raised position within a few days. I notice it, then push the button on the base of the LH headrest stem and lower it and a few days later it's back to the full raised position.

Is this a somewhat common issue or am I just real lucky to have it happen to our Sonata? :grin:

NFV6, no need for a carfax. Bought it brand new and drove it off the lot. I'll have it looked at next service. It's just the drivers side headrest, passenger side stays down. :beer:

Well now, thanks to rallyman I just checked the forward movement/position of the subject drivers side headrest. It was in a forward position. I pulled it all the way forward, then it went back to the aft position. Let's see it the headrest still raises up on it's own now. I'll get back with the results in the next couple days.

Well, son of a buck fuzz, the headrest is still going up. I just checked and made 3 clicks forward on the headrest and it's now in the full aft position. Let's see if it still moves up now in that position. :57: I may not have had the headrest in the full aft position before.

Henderson, NV.

I had service done there and couldn't believe the markup they were asking for 2011 Sonata's. 3K over MSRP. Drove by today and I don't think they've sold a Sonata since I was there over 2 weeks ago. I already told one of the salesmen that I would drive to Reno and by a Sonata from that dealer rather than even talk about trying to get Henderson Hyundai off their outrageous prices.

Went to the Dealer in Henderson today for a hard to start issue and the drivers seat headrest issue. Fuel issue was taken care of and the headrest issue wasn't. Service guy researched the issue and didn't find anything, but did recommend I lay the vertical part of the seat back a little further. Being so upright, as I sat in the seat and the seat moved that may have had an effect on the headrest. I'll give it a go, but seems a lame excuse to me.

Oh well, getting a 2011 Sonata SE with the moon roof/nav package and won't have that issue. :thumbsup:
