The driver's side power seat spontaneously moved all the way forward, and pinned me against the steering wheel. Fortunately, I was parked and not driving. I tried moving the seat adjustment switch manually, but the seat continued to move forward. The vehicle is now at the dealership, and the tell me that they have already corrected a recall (about 8 years ago) which deals with similar problems. And thus they claim the recall is "complete" and they no longer have to correct it.

I was not in an accident but I feel I could have a defective divers side seat that could come loose (seat rail). I was told by a dealer that the only way to repair the issue is to replace the seat which would cost over $3000. If this is happening to other vehicle owners, this could be a safety hazard.

Current recall where heated seat tends to overheat, but my model year isn't included. I have previously complained about this issue to the dealer before I was even aware of the current recall.

The electronic seat positioning control on the drivers side seat keeps adjusting on it's own while the vehicle is in motion. It just started today and seemed to do it at any speed, too include while the vehicle was stopped and the brake was applied. I also experienced the same action after I had placed the vehicle in park and turned off the ignition.
