Backseat won't flip down. UGH!

[pianomankd]

The 70 of the 70/30 split back seat is stuck and won't flip forward (Down). The 30 side flips down just fine.

Anyone know what may be causing this? I don't want to push to hard and snap something....

Yes just play with the up and down but gingerly or it will break then push on the seat back then forward. That worked for me.

Yeah, I had that issue on the 70 side. Like jtp mentioned, it takes some jiggling around but it'll eventually fold down.

I've seen a few posts about that latch breaking, so if yours isn't adjusted and is giving you trouble, like they said be easy with it until you get the dealership to adjust it.

I’m one of the ones with a broken latch. Just snapped off on me the second time I ever folded it down. No real force, just lowering the seat like I’ve done a thousand times in other cars. Be careful!

It's still stuck after tons and tons of jiggling. UGH.

Going to have to take it into the dealer I guess. Bummer.

Good idea. BTW, in case you missed this tread :
