All other controls work for the seat except the slide forward/backward. It clicks and seems like it may work so I pulled the seat and the rails are clean and there’s nothing obstructing the work gears. Any ideas?

The work rod gears?Very common issue check the gears they break
Do you mean worm gear?
There have been few write ups. Try this one. Look ffor a white/yellowed cap with aa cross on one end and threaads on the side. Sometimes this works itself loose, particularly when moveing the seaat forward.

A few of you have been bugging me about these, and tonight I have some good news for you. The long awaited seat gear appears to have been successfully reproduced.. 
start by removing your seat
take off the front plastic panel
then remove the 4 5mm allen bolts.

Thanks. I know years ago I changed the drivers side because it was slipping, but I know it’s a plastic gear. Do you know where I can source them?Do you mean worm gear?

What's funny is I went back and edited my post two or three times when I realized I was misspelling their name by spelling it phonetically, and I still got it wrong!!!

What grease should I use? With lithium!
Fyi. You can also manually move the seats by using the 10mm socket
For the rails I've used Dupont Molykote 33 Medium, it's a Lithium base silicone grease (no "Moly/Molybdenum" despite the brand name)
compatible with most plastics/rubber (except silicone rubber, polycarbonate or ABS plastics IIRC)
Or if you could use Toyota's "Body Grease" which is a lithium base grease with PAO oil and PTFE, it's just more expensive.
Or (if you bought NVidia stock 10 years ago) you could use a KRYTOX (PTFE) grease, something like GPL-205 ($70 for 2oz)

The YM-103 (see attachment below) may be the same as or at least similar to the Toyota Body Grease:
