fordfever Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 I have a 2010 Hybrid 502A. Sorry if this is a silly question, but I cannot find the answer to this question. When the door is open, I do not want the interior lights to go on. I see no switch anywhere to turn this function off. Also, pushing the light button does not turn it off. Also, noticed that the seat does not recline all the way to a lying position. I'm just comparing to my old 97 maxima where the seat would recline to almost a flat position. With the fusion it doesn't recline that far down. Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cchaos Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 (edited) The recline is for safety reasons. During an impact, a recline greater than 45 degrees can allow the driver or passenger to slide off the seat to the back of the vehicle, even with a seat belt fastened. Hyundai recently lost a lawsuit because of this very issue where the driver slid off the seat and out the back window.

First car I've ever owned that didn't have an off option. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may accomplish your objective. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My perimeter lights are deactivated and this doesn't keep the interior lights off. OM also says, in that same area, that locking the doors with the keyfob will turn off the lights, and it does, but only if the doors are closed when locked. If you find a way, let us all know.
