| Description of the problem | I also have the same issue with the ignition causing the seats to move the easy exit position. This happens constantly while driving and is very unsafe. The interior lights come on as if the key was turned off and removed from the ignition, also causing the seat to move the exit position. When this happens, i am unable to reach the pedals and scramble to correct the issue. I see where this is happening to quite a few other owners. Something needs to be done before someone is seriously hurt or killed. |
