Seat Backrest Stuck in Folded Position
If you receive customer reports in the above model vehicles of the seat backrest getting stuck in the folded position, this may be caused by the backrest
jamming due to using both the automatic and manual backrest adjustments at the same time. Follows the steps below to correct.

2. If the backrest does not release, use Star Diagnosis to manually release the adjustment of the backrest angle by following the path: Control unit
groups -> Seats and doors -> ESA- FR/FL- Electric seat adjustment front right/left -> Electric seat adjustment(front right or left) -> Actuations ->
Backrest -> Backrest forward
3. Flash the seat control unit with software A216 442 12 11 or A216 442 13 11 as of DVD 07/08 using Star Diagnosis and following the path:
