My drivers seat back adjustment cable is broken and the seat back is to far back ( and will not come back up ) to drive safely. How do I get at this cable to fix it or at the least, get it back up to a safe drivable position.
Any drawings or pictures would help if available. (somewhere on line???)
Thanks in advance for your help....Alan

Sorry, but I don't have pictures of the seat. However, the cable needs replaced. You will need to remove the seat. On different models, the bolts are accessable from the interior. Others, they are under the car.
