Morning, thanks for getting back to me. I’ll give this a go later

Thank you

[Passenger side seat release]

Morning

I’m after some assistance please. I’ve recently purchase a 2018 Astra VXR, and I’m having issues with the passenger side seat release handle, feels really stiff and like I’m about to break it. Getting embarrassing when I have more than one passenger 

Is there anything I can do to enable the mechanism to function better? Was thinking some WD40 but can’t see any mechanism showing as they covered in plastic
