Thanks for showing all the steps all the other videos just skipped. When we try to diy on cars we need to see everything since most of use don't work on cars and are hesitant to begin with. Great job!

Same. At least I can fold the seat down now...

Thank you so much for showing the step-by-step instructions! I have the confidence now to fix it myself. Getting ready to order the parts needed.

We took our T&C into our Chrysler dealer for a recall job. Asked him to look at our second row seat that didn’t fold. They quoted $975 to fix it! Are you kidding me? I have a mechanical background and after watching your video I know I can DIY this. Thanks for the video!

We’re you able to get this done on you own ? Let us know any other tips you have :)

I just wanted to let you know that your video was SUPER helpful while working on my 2013 Chrysler van seats! I managed to fix both my 2nd row seats by replacing both cables in each seat in just under 3 hours. I've never replaced any parts like this but I will say the 2nd seat went faster than the 1st. I will definitely recommend this video to anyone that has the same problem. Thank you!

Hello Nicole! Thank you for the time you took to leave a comment that it helped. I am happy to hear you handled this by yourself with the help of the video and your own personal skills. As with any car job I can tell you the second one is always WAY faster than the first :) Hopefully you don't have to do it again for a while or ever!

What a great and informative video, no steps were missed. My son and I did the repair this afternoon on his 2017 Dodge Caravan. He was quoted $500 a couple years ago by the local Dodge dealer. We had assumed it would be something the dealer would have to do, so we put it off (as his budget has been pretty tight) - until we recently watched your video. I ordered the 2 cables from Amazon last week and they arrived today. It took us about an hour all said and done. Again, thank you for the video, truly appreciated.

Thanks for the comment it means alot to know it was helpful ! That sounds ridiculous for the price from the dealer . Knowing the manufacture made an inferior cable that breaks then charges that much . Glad you got yours sorted out :)

Thank you! My 5 yo threw up all over the second row seat 😭. And my cable is just stuck on both seats sides though. I'll just have to save for the garage to fix it. But your video was great!

Great video! Thanks for showing all the steps. Very thorough. It made fixing the seat a breeze. Thank you very much.

Very thorough video! While attempting the repair, found the the release cable at the back and underneath of the 2nd row seats had separated from it's bracket. Inserting the cable into the bracket solved the release problem. You can see the bracket where the wire connects just above the bar at 1:57. (At the very top and just right of middle)

The best ever video I have seen so far. This really really helped a lot. Thanks.

Thanks for the comment and I am glad it was helpful. I found like you did many of the other videos skipped steps and were not clear so tried my best to make this detailed. It did end up being a very long video but hopefully people can skim through parts they need :)

Very simple and informative video, I followed it step by step to the test stage and just have the cable snapped at the end, the seat would not drop down and after helping it down it just burst

Thanks, I just needed to stow the SOB!

By following your video it work great and we were able to fix our seat by ourselves and save a ton of money. Thank you so much

Hello Denise! is your front seat power or manual? I haven't had to mess with my mothers van yet for this. Often for electrical seats the switches fail before the motors do or atleast in my experience.

I like your detailed approach in this video. My dealer quoted me $1300 per seat to fix this. You gave me the info and the confidence to do it myself.

Hello there! I find it best to take the vin and go to a mopar parts site to find the right parts. I have the part number for the van I worked on (2016 town and country) in the description. Its best to confirm yours is the same. You likely can find an online parts seller of them that will ship to Mexico or atleast I hope they can. Or you can get the part at a dealer there if there are any. My number was MOPAR 68143771AB for this specific seat. Again please verify with your vin . This was a direct Mopar/Dealer part that I was able to get on amazon. www.amazon.com/MOPAR-68143771AB-Cable-Seat-Riser/dp/B01EKNRZX2/ref=asc_df_B01EKNRZX2/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=647104192557&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=9707589406868543465&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9052026&hvtargid=pla-1947376806460&psc=1&mcid=a33f7b2b222c381b97be9a1ee806610a

If it’s too pricey to fix you can always just reach under the seat to pop it down in the meantime :)

Has anyone fixed these cables and not had the issue fixed? I repaired 3 of the 4 cables minus the dampened on the very front of the seat and then the back of the seat would not come down even not sure why...

That's great. Why won't the headrest fold down so that I can stow and go with my 2012 Caravan??

@JustFixinGarage

Hey there! I haven't had to try to fix that just yet. My guess would be theres another cable involved. If you look up a seat diagram you may be able to trace it down. Who knows maybe that will be the next issue for me and ill post a video. I just bought a 2022 pacifica so im sure ill be paving the way for issues on it :)

Were you ever able to fix this? That's my problem and that's what brought me here. I figured out how to disengage it from the top, but the cable looks good at that end. I don't know where the other end goes.

Where are you located ? Do you do the seat repair for a fee? Thanks

Located in elkton md . I’ve done some side work before for friends but this is all my personal garage / pole barn I don’t have a 9-5 shop :)

my seats fold up and down just fine.....the problem is that the lobster claw mechanism wont lock onto those c clamps on the ground, tried spraying wd-40 onto to see if it would make the claws latch and it didnt work. Does anyone know if replacing these cables would fix that issue?

Hey Dimelo, Sorry for delayed response. I would say like I did you need to take the seat cover off and look at the latches and springs. It sounds like a spring is not engaging on the bottom that latches it. You may be able to see this visually just from looking under the seat or pop it up like you were going to stow it. My guess is a spring is broken OR a cable that pulls the spring snapped and seized.

Be sure to confirm the part I used is the one that fits yours . Amazon did show one in stock . If needed you can call a local dodge dealer give them your vin and ask for the part number or simply order it through them . Cheapest option is getting the part number and checking Amazon or eBay or a reseller if mopar Parts. www.ebay.com/itm/164850513480?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=At4IlOBgQj6&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=iTh60GbSTG2&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
