If you do a search on this there are many post on how to fix,,this will be a cable catch problem and often means lift the corner of the backrest

I had the same problem with the 'small' rear seat on my C Class. Fortunately it was still in warranty but it took the dealer a couple of hours to strip out all the trim to gain access to the mechanism. Luckily they didn't cannabilise any of the trim as I understand this can often be the case. Apparently a very a common problem. Probably best to find an Indie with experience of resolving this problem.
