Driver's Electric Adjustable Seat Gremlins

[steve49]

My 2019 Bighorn has the electric driver adjustable seat, and approximately four times or so, I've got in and found the seat back has dropped back from where I had it set. Has anyone else experienced this?

Do you have an easy exit feature enabled in settings?

Are you switching key fobs? They can be linked to memory positions.

When I picked up my 21 PW, my seat back switch would sometimes work. If you pushed it straight forward it would work constantly. It always worked going back.
I need to take it back in to get fixed. Probably the switch.
Yours may be something similar.

No I use the same key fob all the time. It's Level 2 group with 8 way power adjustable drivers seat, power adjustable pedals, heated seats and heated steering wheel etc. I don't see anything in any of the categories in the Uconnect settings that addresses memory configurations for seats, pedals, mirrors, and the drivers door does not have the three memory buttons next to the door handle. I've wondered about the seat switch and possibly the motor, I think the motors have like a brake which holds the position wherever set?

I havent looked at the motors, but if they are similar to my chevy seats, it's just a worm screw with a follower connected to a bracket on the seat. No brakes.

Does look like electric gremlins.
Try this: move your seat all the way fwd and then all the way back and then return to your preferred sitting position. This trick may or may not work for you but it fixes the issues with the memory seats as it helps the computer to re-learn the seat limits. It did help when my memory recall buttons stopped working.

Yeah I'm gonna stick with the gremlins theory, once in awhile the radio station changes when the truck is started!
