Back Seat question

ALANSD · Posted: Tue Jun 21, 2016 12:07 pm Post subject: Back Seat question

The folding back seat on one side does not line up with the latch in the rear wall. It hits it in a way it does not lock. where can I adjust this? If the seat went up a half inch it would work. When I drive the seat folds itself forward..

I use a piece of nylon plastic strip 1in x 1 1/2 in 1/8 thick, about the size of a paint stick. Lift the latch, put the strip below the latch so it will not drop down as far. You can try a paint stick to get a feel of how thick you need. What happens is over time that latch bends the pocket down as it hits without the seat back. I will see if Big Brother will post some pics.

One of mine acts up like hat too, I just reach in and lift the hook by hand... It works then!
