 Description of the problemDriver seat adjustment feature is failing. Primary driver requires seat to be set at highest possible height (vertical) elevation position. Driver has had to repeatedly use manual adjustment feature to raise seat to required height majority of the time that the vehicle is driven. The frequency that the adjustment must be made before driving is increasing. Although the seat has not yet dropped while the vehicle has been in motion, the concern is that it will start to occur in the future. When the seat drops, the primary driver has issues with the visibility and reaching the both the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal. (note: when the driver seat is adjusted to a higher position, it also moves forward... Closer to the steering column and brake/gas pedals). In addition, when the seat drops to its default position, the primary driver's face is also put at risk if the airbag is deployed. This could result in a potentially serious injury to the primary driver if the airbag deployed with the seat in the default position. The potential failure of the seat adjustment feature in this vehicle appears to constitute a major safety hazard that may result in a significant injury or death (if failure were to occur while the vehicle was being operated by the primary driver).
