How to Lower the Rear Seats of a Ford Focus

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Seat

To lower the rear seats of the Ford Focus, insert your hand in the gap between the seat base and the backrest, allowing the cushion at the base to be fully lifted. Once this is removed, pull the lever located at the top of the backrest, right next to the headrest. Pulling this lever will allow the backrest to be fully lowered, enabling you to perform the same operation on the other side. This way, you can reposition the seats by lifting them and securing them to the appropriate hooks.
