Is your rear seat recline switch on the side panel working?
 
Mine is not.

It works from the tailgate however. It is a blown fuse? If so, where is that located?

Thank you.

May actually be a bad switch, I think they all go back to the same controller / same fuse. Possibly pop out and swap the physical switch with the one working and see what happens.

Thank you.

If memory serves me correct...I believe the switches for the reclining rear seats can be deactivated (just like the rear windows) by the button on the driver’s door window switch.

Make sure you don’t have the rear window switch activated which prevents rear passengers (children) from lowering & raising the rear windows. If that button is activated, it will deactivate the rear seats electric recline buttons as well as the rear windows.

EDIT: yep...just checked the owners manual...the rear seat switches can be deactivated...so check the button on the driver’s door to see if that is causing the issue. :)
