Passenger seat forward tilt/slide
In my 03 MCS the passenger seat will no longer do it's automatic tilt and forward slide to access back seat.
The seat slides just fine forward and back for a manual position adjustment and also reclines and stays in chosen position correctly as well. The only feature that seems broken is when you press the outboard lever down, the seat should tilt forward and slide to it's most forward position automatically to allow easier access to back seat. In my case, the seat back will tilt forward, but won't move from it's locked front/back location. Anyone else had this issue and what was the fix? This is NOT to be confused with the other reported issue of the back recline getting stuck or not working. That part works just fine for me. Thanks for your input! |
Either the end of the cable slipped off the holder, or it broke. There's no easy fix if the cable broke.

Thanks RKW! I checked it out briefly today and compared the mechanism to that of the driver seat and there is indeed and issue with the cable on the left side area as described in the write up you provided a link to.
Looks like I'll have to remove the seat to get a detailed look at the problem. Thanks for the link it definitely helped! Pat |
I've both seats w/ the same problem. I just use the inboard lever as they still work, just not as convenient. Never got around to investigate the cable yet.
I found a used pair of seats identical to mine that were sold for cheap due to 1 of em having the seat recline problem. Fixed that spare w/ the body slam method. Once I decide to put the new 1s in, I'll get to check those cables. |
