Power seat tilt doesn't work - 05 coupe

[joe603]

Cleaned the inside of the car today, and put the seat back for cleaning the windshield. Tilted it back forward, then lifted the rear handle to fold it up to do the rear windshield....Put the seat back upright, and the tilt forward didn't work. The tilt rear worked initially, but then after a few tries forward to back, it quit too.

Has anyone seen this? Could it be the motor overheated?? I don't think it would be a fuse, all other controls work fine...just the seat tilt. And it's only the drivers side, if that makes a difference.

Any suggestions?? I really don't want to take it to the dealer...

OK, so it's the recline motor...is there any way to manually put the seat back up, until I get it to the dealer?

[joe603]

Anyone?

it is under warranty,let the dealer worry about it as you drive away in an 07 g loaner for the day
