Ford Excursion :: 2001 - Middle Seat Stuck In Fold Flat Position

Any trick? I folded down the larger (driver's side) middle seat to get a large payload in...now it won't pop back up...no matter how much lever pushing and seat-yanking I do. It's a 2001 Limited.

Lexus LS 2007+ :: 600 HL - Retain Reclined Position Of Back Seat?

On my LS 600 HL- there are two buttons on the rear door handle. One is C and other is M.

One lights up, when pressed. What is the function of each?

I would prefer to leave the back seats in reclined position permanently but I find that they go back to erect position often (I didn't particularly test this function). What is the function of the C and M buttons?

Santa Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: 3rd Row Seat Stuck In The Down Position

The passenger side 3rd row seat is stuck in the down position. The driver side lifted and locked in place just fine, but when I pull the release lever on the passenger side the outer part releases but center portion won't budge at all.

I've tried everything I can, which isn't much other than pulling and grunting at the same time (usually works for me )Critical because I need to set the 3rd row up in order to reach the bolt holding the 2nd row seat so they can be removed so I can access the fuel covers in order to replace the faulty fuel sensors so my gas gauge will work.

Golf VI R :: 2012 - Driver Seat Won't Hold The Position Of The Back?

I have a 2012 2-door R with sunroof and navigation. Almost from the very beginning the driver's seat had a problem. It would not hold the position of the back. It would slowly keep going back. Over a couple of days of driving (less than 2 hours per day) I would have to adjust the back about a 1/4 turn of the wheel to get it back to the original position. I have taken it back to the dealer twice for this and they could not find anything obvious.

They said that they would need to take the seat apart in order to figure it out. According to them I am the first one with this issue they have heard of. I am debating if I should keep adjusting it every couple of days, or take the chance and let them take it apart, hoping that there will be no collateral damage in the process. How easy/difficult it is to get to the guts of the seat?

I have a 2000 Regular Cab Work Truck with non power split bench seat. The passenger side back will not hook in the up position.

Before diving into it. Is the mechanism broken or is it something I can fix if I tear it apart? There is nothing stuck under or behind that I can tell.

Toyota - Avalon :: Memory Seat Function Remember Back Position (angle)?

Does the memory seat function remembers the back position (angle)? Or does it just remember the height and forward/backward position of the seat? The back angle position is not remembered in my 2014 Avalon Limited but I am not sure whether I should report this as a problem or whether that is just the design.

Suburban :: Middle Sliding Seat Jammed And Cannot Get It Back Into Regular Sitting Position

The middle sliding seat has jammed and I cannot get it back into the regular sitting position. I don't see any obvious obstructions, but there are a couple of springs not attached, and I may be missing a connecting rod.

Any pictures of how a "normal" mechanism should look like?

Phaeton :: Rear Seat Headrest On One Side Is Always Up And It Won't Go Down

My rear seat headrest on one side is always up, and I can hear a motor running in the rear seat back whenever the engine is running. Shut the engine off, and the head rest remains up. I couldn't push it down with any reasonable amount of force. Does it need a complete headrest motor, or can the existing one be repaired?

Lexus GX 2010+ :: Driver And Front Passenger Seat Headrest Won't Stay Up

The driver and front pax headrest won't stay up on my '11 GX. They have the RSES installed. I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but it seems odd that both headrests would experience the same problem. When I raise them, they just fall right down to the lowest position with a thunk.

If I wiggle the passenger one, sometimes it will stay up. It looks like there are a couple of plastic bushings that aren't seated properly, but when I push them down, they just ride up again when I raise the headrest.

I'll take it to the dealer next week, as this should be covered under warranty, but I'd like to know if this is a known issue and if there is anything I can do to prevent it from happening again.

Sonata NF (2006-10) :: Rear Seat Won't Fold Down

I have a 2006 Sonata, and surprisingly I don't think I have ever needed to fold down the rear seats. However, the other day I was bringing home a rug from Home Depot and discovered that I cannot get the right rear seat to fold down. The latch at the top of the seatback simply does not budge when I try to pull up on it to fold down the seat. I checked the locking mechanism, and it is not locked, so I don't know what the problem is.

I even flipped it back and forth several times between locked and unlocked, just in case something was stuck in that mechanism, but that didn't work. I also disconnected the middle seat belt, thinking that perhaps the seat is not designed to be folded down when the middle seat belt is in place, but that didn't work either. The latch on the left rear seat works just fine. Unfortunately it is the smaller of the two, and so is generally less useful.

Volvo :: XC90 Rear (3rd Row) Seat Jammed And Will Not Fold Down

I've just bought a 2005 XC90 and one of the rear (3rd row) seats is jammed in the uprigh position and will not fold down. The problem is that the lever does not release the base of the seat to slide back.

I have tried poking my fingers in and have examined the side that is working to see how the mechanism works. It would appear that the catches at each side that hold the base of the seat in position do not swivel around enough when the lever is lifted up. I have tried lifting the lever as far as I dare but I'm worried that if I try any harder something will break.

Elantra GD (2013+) :: Rear Fold Down Seat Cushion Gets Stuck

Elantra GT ... Most of the time I leave the right side rear seat folded down. Every once in a while I need to return it to the normal upright configuration. That goes fine, but then later when I try to fold the seat down again the cushion (the one that you sit on) gets stuck and I have a hard time folding the seat back down again. I yank on the strap, pulling forward, upward etc. and it doesn't do anything.

Eventually, and seemingly at random, the cushion pops loose and I can fold the seat down. I can't figure out where it is getting stuck. Can I lubricate the metal parts with silicone spray or Lemon Pledge or something (I wouldn't want to use anything greasy that would get on the seat cushions)? Yes, I read the owners manual and I am following the proper procedure for folding/unfolding the seat.

Golf/GTI VI :: 2010 - Unable To Remove Rear Side Headrest In Order To Install Child Seat

I have a 2010 4 door GTI. I'd like to install my daughter's front facing Britax child seat either in the rear right or rear central position. However, in either case, I'm finding that most of the rear weight ends up on the headrest and I would like to simply remove the headrest from that seating position.

I read in the user manual that to remove the headrest,I pull it to it's highest position and then push the button on the right side of the plastic entrance of the head rest into the seat, and 'simply' pull the headrest vertical out of the seat.

This is similar to how this was done in other cars I've owned. However it is not working for me with the GTI. Once I pull the headrest to the highest possible position I can get to, I press the button but the headrest simply refuses to come out. I've tried this on the other rear seat and same problem. With the middle rear seat I can't seem to pull the headrest out beyond its lowest position.
