Hi. This is my first post. I'm trying to resolve a problem with the passenger side middle seat which won't move forward or back. It could be that something is jamming the mechanism, but I'm blowed if I can detect anything. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and have managed to fix it.

    Hi,

    Did you manage to remove the seat? I unbolted the 4 screws in front but in the rear part of the seat I can't see what  I have to do...

    My left runner on the middle seat is stuck and won't move..

     

    Thanks,

    Pedro

    My middle seat is actually stuck in a position that is covering the bolts that fix it to the chassis. Are you able to suggest a way that I can remove the seat?
