Automatic Seat Stuck...

Guys,

I dropped my keys down next to my seat...so I pushed the seat all the way forward with the automatic button and once it got to the end it stopped. I got the keys and when I tried to push the seat back, it won't go anywhere. I squeezed into the seat to try to push it back but it won't budge at all.

So apparently the gears are stripped or something because the motor runs, it just won't grab onto the track or something. Is there any kind of release or way to align it again even with warn/stripped gears inside?

Any help would be appreciated as I can't drive the damn thing at all right now and it's a holiday weekend...ahhhh!

Thanks.

I ended up getting it 'unstuck' by shaking the crap out of it side to side (not front to back like previously posted) so apparently the gear isn't lined up correctly and its slipping off to one side. I'm definitely going to have to replace that gear though...I can't have that happening again. Thanks 88...I'll give that a try.
