Help with 2015 Genesis rear seat armrest

New member. Purchased 2015 month ago out of town. Love the vehicle. Like a dummy did not pull down the rear seat armrest for days. When I tried, it pulled out an inch and no farther. I can find no other access around the seat or in the trunk. Can you help a fellow traveler?

Welcome. Moving this to the correct section.

This happened to me as well. Give it a good pull, it will come down,

You are pushing down on the handle to unlatch it, correct?

You can also unlatch the ski pass through in the trunk, and then push it.

I’m having the same issue but forcing the rear seat center console/armrest isn’t going to happen. The linkage attached to the handle must have come off the interior mechanism and now it’s stuck in the up position. Anyone else having this issue?
