This is excellent advice!

It's absolutely baseless fear-mongering.

Some choose to live in fear.

Well...guess what?? I went out to my coach today, and I tried like hell to get the seats to turn around. I even read one post where a person had the same problem as me and he said that he had to turn his seat counter-clock-wise. I tried that...no luck.

One person said that he managed by moving the steering wheel down, not up...didn't work for me.

I tried moving the seat forward, seat back, arm rest up, arm rest down, back tilted forward, back tilted backward, steering wheel up, down...still the seat hit the steering wheel.

Then I stood up, moved the lever to tilt the back of the seat forward, and while pressing down in a standing position...it kind of clicked and I could move the back of the seat a lot further forward....and viola...I was able to clear the steering wheel. All this time, I thought the seat only tilted so far forward. I haven't a clue what was binding, but whatever it was, it's not binding anymore. Crazy how all this time I have been sitting sideways.

Are you able to then put the back in a position that you can actually sit in comfortably?

It's "OK"...not great. I would like to find something that had a footrest. It's just uncomfortable to sit in that chair when it's turned around with your feet dangling.
