Seating position, pedal/brake

[kimerrill]

I recently purchased a 2020 JLU. After driving the vehicle for a month or so, I’ve noticed that I am having trouble finding a comfortable seating position. I’ve adjusted my seat numerous times. When pressing the gas/brake I’m constantly having to use my toes. My heel does not rest on the floor like my previous vehicles. Other than a pedal extender, are there any other suggestions? Am I able to adjust the pedal myself. For reference, I am 5’1. TIA

Have you adjusted the seat height? I would try the lowest position!

And adjust the steering wheel all the way in so you can get closer to the pedals.

I have. I’ve adjusted to the lowest and highest seat position. My heel slightly touches the ground when the seat is highest, but I feel ridiculous sitting that high. I’ve also adjusted the steering wheel multiple times to see if that will help, but it’s still annoying.
So there is no way to adjust the pedal maybe? If not, I guess I’ll just live with it or seat extremely high

A set of pedal extenders, may be in your future.

Just wait till you get the seat exactly where you want it and someone like your spouse moves it all over the place.

How about some 1970’s disco platform shoes?

I saw a couple options on Amazon, but there were mixed reviews, so that’s why I was trying to see if there were maybe any other options

Note the whole column can move in or out.

This happens

I’ve adjusted up/down/in/out and still can’t find a comfortable position. Or if I do, the next time I’m driving it doesn’t feel right. The seat in my Cherokee was much lower, but the seat was automatic so easier to move around. Honestly, it’s whatever, I’ll deal. Just figured I’d see if there were any other options
