Second row seat stuck in the middle

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
The second-row seat is jammed in the middle position because of a broken part, making it impossible to fold either forward or backward. Furthermore, the down levelers aren't operational. Is there a manual way to adjust the seat position? Tesla has indicated that the required replacement part won't be accessible for 45 days, and I prefer not to leave the seat folded in the middle until Tesla fixes it.

I wonder how hard it is to remove the black cover from the rear of the seat. (Probably easy.)

I also wonder if you have access to the seat mechanism with that removed and if you might be able to straighten and regain use of the seat again.
