Default Neither of my front seats recline...

Is this a common problem with the fatory seats? I bought the Jeep used with only 7000 miles on it, and the front seats have never reclined since day one. This doesn't work for when i wanna take naps on my break from work haha

Anyone else have this issue?

Mine work fine. Are you sure that you are using the right lever. Mine has a height lever, and a recline lever

check the hinge joints.... if you have loose change or small screws or even a paper clip that has fallen into them ...they won't recline.


hope that fixes your problem.

You must have got the "No Gangsta Driver Pkg" Doesn't allow for excessive reclining.

if they're broken, take it to the dealer.



if you're doing it wrong, that would be embarassing though.
