Tap the tool with a hammer lightly it might just free up the thread a little.

Heat the area with a hairdrier and put your tool in the freezer. The temp difference is sometimes enough to give a little more play.

Tighten a fraction of a turn and then loosen sometimes this frees it up.

Make sure your tool head is exactly the right size, the last thing you want is to damage the screw thread.

On the rear seats you might have to lift them slightly as you fold them forwards. Often they drop a fraction and although the release is pressed they still don't quite clear the catch.
