I know the dealer has em, they want $350 for it. Ive tried rockauto & a few other places, can't find em anywhere else. Mine is the 6 way motor.

My passenger seat motor forward/backward function stopped working. The up/down and tilt funcions work still. Today I removed the seat and unbolted the tracks from the gear tracks and the seat bracket moves easily, but the seat motor does nothing.

My car only has 20k miles on it, but the warranty expired already. JR @ Future Ford Sacramento contacted Ford for me to see if they would help, & they refused. Big thanks to JR for trying though most people would have just said "You're warranty expired, sorry"

I'd swap you seats and call on my warranty but I doubt your seats are the same

Motors are most likely the same.an it's easy to swap seat tracks.

My seats are the California special leather seats, black leather with carbon fiber styled leather down the middle. Hurting your feelings is correct, the motor is part of the seat bracket, so I believe it's two bolts & 6 nuts to remove it. If that's something you're up for I'd greatly appreciate it, if not I totally understand

Can you take the motor apart? Maybe you just need a smaller part inside it. The motor itself may be more universal that you can find a donor motor to get the part you need for yours. No harm in breaking something that's already broke. Hard to believe something like that would go out on a car so new.
