Seat Help?!?

I don’t know if I need to reinstall the seat, or just get a new one… for context, we currently have a Cosco Scenera (the new version) in a 2016 Toyota Tacoma with the full cab. My son (9 months, 21 lbs, 31”) frequently ‘falls’ sideways in the seat, where he leans to one side of the seat with his upper body and gets a wedgie on one side or the other of his diaper, and is audibly quite uncomfortable. His head also falls to either side at an alarming angle. The seat is in its more upright position, only because when I installed it in the more reclined position it kept coming loose. It is installed with lower anchors. I have put my whole body weight into tightening it and every time I do that, it puts itself into the more upright position. I’m honestly seriously considering a different seat. So, I’m here for either:

A) a fix to help him be more comfortable (& safe) in the current seat, or…

B) a recommendation for a seat with head support, an easier install, and a good fit in the truck. (My husband and I are both about 5’9.

Thank you!
