Fiat Punto Seat - Robin
The passenger seat on our Fiat Punto will not click into its mounting. That is, it slides up and down on the rails and thus cannot be used. Is there something simple and obvious that I can do to fix it or is it a trip to the Fiat dealer?

it's probably one of two things -
a) - something stopping the locking mechanism engaging (old biro, mint imperial, that house key,small childs finger etc.etc). If you can get under the seat, you may be able to fish it out

b) the mechanism may be broken, in which case you may be able to bodge/weld/braze something according to your abilities, but if your car is a recent model with seat airbags, this starts to be a definite dealer job
