Please help Passenger seat movement problem

[Dowling1980]

Hi was wondering if anyone could help me i have a 2010 e350 sport coupe the passenger seat moves forwards on one side and jams into centre console i have removed the seat and can see a possible problem with the square coil type thread that goes into the motor under the seat. Merc want 900 for a rail replacement or 230 for a repair kit. The motor works fine was just wondering if this is a common problem or a rare occurrence.

Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated thanks craig
