Extend them. Put some transmission oil on a rag and apply to the exposed shaft. Try retracting again and see if it improves. Check for obstructions. Last would be maybe a new spring is needed.
Oil can attract and hold dust. Silicone spray is better. Extend as said above, spray, clean with a clean lint free cloth, spray once more and try to retract. If it is the spring, (our right rear has been weak for years) you can assist it up with a long lever.
