Passenger Seat Trouble

Hi!
I have a 2014 Mini Cooper S. Tonight, my son pulled the lever on the back of the seat to let my other son out. Now, the seat won't lock into any position. It just falls forward - so nobody can sit it. We've tried to look online for help but have only found people who have struggled with the seat being stuck in recline. Anyone else experience the same thing I have? Any idea how to fix it?

Thanks!

You have to move it pretty hard and push it back to lock sometimes, unless one of the gears on the side when you pushed it down broke, then the MINI dealership will cover this. Also try to push it back while you are sliding it back on the bottom seat
