There is a reduction gear in the seat back gearbox operator that is made of plastic and is prone to failure. The replacement of the gear requires removal of and disassembly of the gearbox or replacement of the unit in its entirety, call Autobahn dismantling @ (619)444-2290 and speak to John or Sean and tell them Dr. Hagerty sent you.
