You may have a problem with your motor, BUT...there's a known issue with the circuit board in the seat control modules. Summary: over time, the edge of the module casing rubs through a tiny electrical circuit on the circuit board, and until that little circuit is repaired, the seat loses its ability to tilt.

Your driver and passenger seat modules are interchangeable...one way to check for this problem is to switch them and see what happens (assuming at least one is working).

Here's one thread talking about that problem...there are others.

Yes, I just had this same issue where the other seat functions would work but not the incline/recline. It was the seat control module problem described above.
