Headrest keeps popping up

My driver side headrest keeps popping up a notch or two from the lowest position, and I hate it when the driver and passenger side headrests aren't even. I push the headrest down all the way and then raise it slighty until the first notch, it catches but after a while I notice that it has raised back up. This happen to anyone else? If so, do you care as much as I do? If you do, know any quick fixes? Man, sometimes my OCD is ridiculous...

either the latch is broken and not catching right or the spring in the latch in messed up.

and i understand your analness. im tall so i drive with my seat all the way back and reclined a little. after someone rides with me and moves the seat, i have to move it back before i get out. i want the seats to look the same when it sits there. plus i close all the vents, cup holder lid, and ashtray (cell phone holder)

I think it looks better with the headrests all the way down. I don't like the rods showing. Yeah I know, I said rod.

all clean and symmetrical

Stop feeding it Viagra...hahha....

I actually leave my headrests all the way down, not locked on any notch. They seem to stay down just fine?

I agree the 3rd gen head rest are the best, you can move it to any position.

My driver side one does this also? Maybe it's because it's an "Active Headrest"? LOL
