Rear Seat Controls

Any reason why my passenger side rear seat controls would be adjusting the FRONT seats, not the back??

There's a pair of small buttons to the left of the control with arrows on them. Press the right arrow and the controls work the rear seats. Press the left arrow and they work the fronts. It's very convenient to be able to move the front seat up for more legroom or or place a large package in the rear seat well without having to open the front door.

If you have kids that can't be trusted in the back, the rear window lockout switch at the driver's door also defeats the front seat adjustment option.

Thanks! Obviously I don't ride back there - but the kids were back there during a road trip last week and were amusing themselves by saying "hey dad, watch this! (as mom's seat went back and forth).....

Guess could have figured this out by reading the book - but sitting here in front of the computer is much easier! LOL

Thanks for the insight!
