| Description of the problem | The driver side power seats move forward as you are driving. The back of the seat pinned me forward against the driving wheel, and would not go back as i tried franticly to do. I was able to move to the side of the road. I shut off the vehicle and after sitting for a while i tried the electric seat control and the seat recline back again. I went down the road without incident, however the next day when i got into the car the seat was again forward up against the steering wheel. This is a true safety issue and i saw several others complain about this same issue on other year models as well posted on the internet. I am afraid to let my family drive this car. |
