2025 Hyundai Santa Fe Seats Problems

Your second row power seats can move forward even when a child car seat is properly installed using the LATCH system, potentially crushing the child inside. The power seat buttons at the base of the seats are easy to accidentally press when getting in or out of the vehicle, especially if you're not wearing a seatbelt, causing the seat to move unexpectedly. This has happened multiple times since you bought the car, creating a serious safety hazard for child passengers.

Your second row seat's folding button was accidentally pressed while your child was seated, and the seat continued to fold with your child still in it, creating a potential pinching or crushing hazard. Your child was distressed during the incident. You're concerned the button may be too easy to accidentally trigger during normal entry and exit, and that the seat should stop moving when a child is present.

Your second-row seats unexpectedly close on child safety seats when you press the button on the rear of the vehicle, whether the car is running or off. Once the button is pressed, the seats won't stop closing until you press the button again to stop them. This happened several times starting around 15,000 miles. The issue likely involves the seat's motorized closing mechanism or its control switch needing adjustment or replacement.
