With the car doors open, the mechanism that holds the seatbacks in place is the lever at the bottom. With the seat bottom raised up you will see a lever/spring. Possibly yours isn't coming up all the way. It may just be matter that the seatbacks haven't been folded down in very long time and are stuck. This is what happened to me when we first got the '87 TD. I had to just keep yanking on it. I then lubricated everything with silicone spray.
