Back seat issue

I am having issues getting the back seat on the drivers side to latch. Is there a trick to getting it to latch?

I’m assuming that you let the seat-back down and now when you stand it back up, the latch doesn’t engage. If that’s the case, just try different positions of the little rod to which the latch attaches. Or, fold up the seat bottom and seat back together. That should do the trick as well.

I guess I'll just go back to the dealer and get them to look at it.

I had some issues getting my drivers side rear seat to latch after installing the LMI seat kit.
