CRAP!!! HELP!!!!!! (Driver Seat Problems) - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Okay, this is the most craziest and embarrassing thing that has ever happened to me. I was in my car and I was driving on I-95. Stupid female on a phone was driving and decided to fucking cut me off and brake hard like it's no tomorrow because there was a car in front her. I had to stop so hard that I came to a complete stop on the edge of the freaking road. I hit my seat pretty hard and I remember hearing a pop in the seat. As I tried to adjust my seat back, my seat couldn't get back to the regular position. So, I stupidly tried lowering it all the way down and pull it back up......REAL STUPID ASS IDEA!!! The seat is now so low, I'm afraid people will think I'm about to do a drive by on them because I'm leaning back so much....

So....

HOW DO I FIX THIS PROBLEM!? All that I came up with is that the bar that twist it to move the angle of the seat is some how jammed......I got a feeling, a trip to the toyota dealership is needed now.

HELP!!!

Something like that happened to me once , I unbolted the seat for a better look . Turned out a damn quarter got wedged in the mechanism . Maybe something got stuck in there ?

^^^^Good thinking. Now one problem, how exactly do I unbolt the seat.....kinda hard for a Gen 2 Camry LE when that have that DAMN plastic cover blocking everything...

the 4 bolts on the floor you can see where they are... the 2 fronts aren't covered the rears are

Well I went to the dealership and they said the fabric seem to some how got caught. They guy said it would cost 96 per hour for them to work on it. HA! I'll work on it myself. Time for some work tomorrow.....
