2009-2013 Routan – Third Row Seating
December 13, 2013: Update to Information.
Pulling up on any of the third row seating legs is not recommended (Figure 1) as this may cause the leg(s)
to not fold flat when the seat is in the stowed position (figure 2). If the third row seating leg(s) do not fold
flat into the seat, the tension spring on the affected leg(s) will need to be replaced. Repair kit part numbers,
for reference only, are as follows:
7B0898305 Spring repair kit for folding seat leg (manual folding seats)
7B0898305A Spring repair kit for folding seat leg (power folding seats)
