The driver's power seat back will not hold a constant position. The seat gradually moves forward on its own and is never in the same position when you get back in the vehicle. This is a very annoying problem because the seat needs readjusted every time you sit down to drive the vehicle. The dealer ordered a new switch 4 weeks ago and claims that it is own back order.
