They then let me sit in the car to try it, and adjusted them a bit more to my liking. It doesn't take much to straighten up the headrests). They took the leather off the front headrests (so as not to scuff it) and bent the posts ever so slightly (don't bend them a lot. You could try to do this yourself, but I'd suggest taking the car to an automobile upholstery shop (find someone who seems confident that they know what to do, and says they've done it before). It places the surface of the headrest so far behind your head that you could suffer a bad neck injury in an accident.Ī better solution is to bend the headrest posts slightly to straighten the headrests up. Turning around the headrest is not such a good solution in the Altima. I am 6'5" and definitely don't have the best posture in the world.maybe the "zero-gravity" seats are forcing me into some posture that I just don't like.Ĭlick to expand.If the headrests jutting to far forward are the main problem, then: So, I'm going through physical therapy to see if I can work out my neck issues. Maybe there's a psychological element to this as well. I'm still okay in my other vehicle, and my wife's new car as well. I've tried every permutation of the eight-way seat adjustments, tons of pillows, cushions, different neck stretches, etc, all to no avail. It's not as bad as the Sonata, but after owning this for almost half a year, there's still something with the seat that my neck and shoulders don't like. But, literally on the way home from the final purchase, my neck starts tightening up again. During test drives, I found the seats and ergonomics much better.
So, I traded in my Sonata for a 2013 Altima 3.5 SL. I was fine in our other two cars, and my old Maxima which I sold a few weeks after buying the Sonata. I got a 2013 Hyundai Sonata last June, and after 2-3 months, my neck and shoulders would get very tight and knotted when driving it.
