The lever that folds the back of my seat on the passenger side broke. It looks like the shaft broke, appears to be plastic, and white metal. Has anyone ever replaced this , how hard is it to pull the seat. I hope this can be replaced, without buying a whole whatever. Thanks in advance, Jim.
Check here is the instructions to pull the seats and change the cover. You can just use the part you need to pull the seat and it tells how to pull the lever off. If it is just the lever you do not need to pull the seat out. I don't think the rod broke, probably just the handle itself I had one broke when I got the car it was not expensive at the dealer to get another one.
The lever is a few bucks at the dealer parts dept. There is a retainer clip behind the lever you van pull with a needle nose pliers to remove the remaining part. Put the clip on the new part before installing it, and then just slide it on the shaft till the clip clicks....done! o need to pull seat.

use the the directions on web sight to pull the seat. After you get it out you can look under to see where it hooks up, go from there to see where it is loose and how to fix. Sorry I can not be more help. Good luck getting it fixed
