Seat memory

For no reason that I can find, the drivers seat will randomly move ahead about 5" while the car is parked in the garage and I am not watching. I have the easy exit feature turned off. That feature is supposed to raise the steering wheel too, so I don't see the connection. This is bizarre. Any ideas?

They adjust forward automatically every time you drop the rear seats flat for cargo.

I read about that and was wondering if the car knew if the current seat position would clear the folded seats. However, in my case, the passenger seat does not move when this happens. I can have the back seats folded or not when I drive into the garage. I come out the next morning and the drivers seat may or may not have moved forward unattended. Maybe it is a glitch in this system?

The passenger seat doesn't move forward when you drop the rear seat backs - just the driver side. I hate this feature but haven't looked to see if it can be turned off.
