Hi Bill! Did it previously work?

I don't think I ever tried to use the up lever before.
Automotive Expert
Ok. If you pull up and the seat doesn’t move, it is most likely as high as it will go. Have you tried to lower it and then see if it will go back up to determine if this is the case?

it doesn't seem to go down either.
Automotive Expert
Ok, then it is possible the lever or seat mechanism is broken.

OK, I will take it to my local dealer. Thanks.

You’re welcome! If you aren’t over the mileage and depending on the date your car went in service, you may still be in your 3 year/36,000 mile warranty.
