Here is what the books says check out the diagram below.

Remove the rear storage box. See: Interior Moulding / TrimUtility Storage CompartmentService and RepairRear Storage Box - Removal.

Lift front edge of the third row seat until retainers (5) disengage.
With the help of an assistant, carefully pry up on the hooks (4) while the seat cushion is being pressed towards the seat back.

While lifting up on the hooks, pull the seat cushion out towards the front of the vehicle and remove the seat cushion.

Disengage J-clips from seat cushion.
Carefully remove the seat cover from the cushion, removing any hog rings and discarding.

Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know what happens.

Cheers
