New sonata owner seats are painfully uncomfortable. Help!
So I just bought a 2026 sonata SEL hybrid. I've had it for a week. When I was looking at cars they didn't have any of the scls in stock but they gave me the blue hybrid and I took it for a 24-hour test drive. One of the reasons that I chose the car was because it was comfortable. The dealer told me that the only difference between the blue and SEL hybrids were some additional features. Because they had to bring the car in from out of state, I could not test drive my specific car before buying. I didn't think it would be an issue because as I said the suits in the blue seemed fine and I was told they were the same as the SEL.
So that brings me to today when I drove it off. The lot seats were fine. I was fairly comfortable other than trying to get it in the exact configuration that I wanted. Now. After driving it for a week I cannot get comfortable at all. The seats are hard. They press into my back and my tailbone and make my butt, back and hips hurt. I've tried every configuration forward, backwards, up down, moving the steering wheel moving the headrest lumbar no lumba. think a lot of the problem is that there's no way to get the front of the seat lower than the back of the seat and the lumbar support is too low. So it offers no support and if I do use it it presses into my tailbone.
Does anyone else have this issue with their sonata? Did it go away as the seats were broken in? And what suggestions do you guys have for making the seat more comfortable? I'm so disappointed the seat issue is so bad that it's making me hate my new car and I dread driving it.
I'm 5'10 with a pretty long torso and long legs if that helps any.
