This information applies to the 2007 Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon with RPO (ARS).
One or both of the following conditions may affect the power fold and tumble second row seats:
1. The seat bottom will not flip forward on the second stage of the fold and tumble seat.
2. The seat back will not fold back to the upright position after the rear seat bottom is latched.
The outer striker may not be fully latching into the seat bottom. To repair this condition, use an adjustable wrench (fig. 23) to rework the outer striker (closest to the door) 1-2 mm (0.04-0.08 in) forward toward the front of the vehicle. This should center the striker with the seat bottom latch.Â
