Default Volvo 93' Twisted seat

Yesterday when I was driving home, the weirdest thing happened to my seat. On the left side it is leaned back... Which was weird so i tried adjusting t with the butons and that only made it worst. So on further investigating there are two gears on both side, on one side the rod is correctly into it, but on the other one the rode cannot be seen, it looked like it was pushed back.. Anyway of bringing it back into the gear correctly??

Sounds like the rod slid to the other side somehow. I have seen those seats twisted before but never knew how.

You will likely have to pull the skin up on the seat, align the seat correctly by turning the gear in there, then seat the rod back into it properly, then closing up the seat.

You can find instructions on how to pull the seat skin up by looking in the DIY thread and reading up on how to repair the seat back recliner movement.
