I’ve owned this car for nearly two years. On April 3, 2025, I took my car to Niello VW. A service person told me he’d just had a VW Beetle with the same problem, just the passenger’s side. Since there was nothing jamming the glide rails, there was no reason for the seat to be stuck. I took the car to a car upholstery shop because they specialize in removing car seats. The person had a hard time removing my seat, but he did. He said one of metal teeth like glides or steel buttons was broke. There are three on each side of the car seat. It was only on the right side of the driver’s seat. The driver’s seat is stuck and unable to be adjusted to the driver’s leg length. There was nothing jammed in the lock that caused this to be stuck. I have owned 4 VW Beetles and I’ve never had a problem like this. It’s very expensive about $1000 to repair. Mine is 2018 VW Beetle. I should not have a problem like this. I am reporting this because other VW Beetle owners have had to same problem. I did have the air bags repaired a recall.
