What is this lever????

Anyone know what this lever does?? Does not seem functional at all. Maybe mine are broke. (Lever on both sides of back seat) There is a lever on the top to pull the seats down.

this lever allows the back of the rear seat to change angle. if it doesn't do anything, it is likely in the reclined position. try to pull the lever with one hand and pull the back of the seat with the other.

It’s a two way push pull reclining switch.

It reclines the back of the rear seats . There are a couple of deferent angle settings . Each of them does a different seat back .
