Second row seat brackets bent?
I recently had the second row folded down for a camping trip. After putting everything back where it belonged, The 60 portion slid back and forth without locking in. I ended up showing it to a Ford Tech who said the bracket for the locking mechanism looked bent. I found an old post mentioning the same thing with the advice of bending them back in shape by matching up with a good bracket on the 40 side. Problem is, all 4 brackets seem to be bent in similar fashion. Right now the heavy gauge wire that is normally attached to the bracket is disconnected so both the 40 and 60 sides are locked in place. When I did have them hooked up, the handles lower and upper had no effect on any of the release wires as I moved them around. I have child seats in the third row, would be really nice to get that slide functionality back. Can someone provide a picture of what the brackets should look like if I am indeed on the right track? (pun intended) If not, can someone help me out on what else might be causing my problem?
