2006 Sonata : Headrest
 

I test-drove a 2006 Sonata yesterday. A very nice car for the price.
About the only negative I came up with was the position of the driver's
headrest. I've never had a headrest actively touch the back of my
head, to the point of being uncomfortable. This was not the case with
the Azera or any other car I've driver over the years. Anyone else
have this issue ? Am I going nuts ? I like the car and am strongly
considering a purchase, but not with this. Thanks

Yes, you are going nuts :-) But seriously, the headrest is adjustable from
front to back AS WELL as up and down. It was just probably in the forward
position. If you move it all the way forward it will release and go to the
full rear position. It kind of has a racheting feel to it.

It has a front to back adjustment. Sounds like it was all the way to
the front.
