Hello all, the headrest will no longer stay up on the right side of the 3rd row. Any suggestions? It’s autofolding seats, if that helps.

I'm sorry to say that I can't be helpful - I have no knowledge of the inner-workings for the seat.
This is, however, a gag I cannot pass up, so....

My 2020 had similar issue. One of the headrests was stuck in the up position. They had to replace the mechanism that was shown in the previous post. They were able to temporarily lower it for me while waiting on parts. Once they did that it wouldn’t lock in the up position as you are experiencing.

You need a new headrest mechanism assembly. There are some YouTube’s on how to DIY if you are comfortable.
