| Description of the problem | The right side seat in the middle row has flipped to fold itself while i was driving. This has happened twice. No one was in the seat either time. I am not certain if the car was in motion. It appears the lever that releases the seat for the stow and go feature either disengaged or did not fully engage the last time the seat was positioned. I wondered if the seat was not fully locking into the upright position everytime. So i have tried to lift the lever up just enough to disengage the seat while keeping the seat in the upright, but not locked, position. I have not been able to do so. |
