Easy entry glitch?
I open the door, sit down, shut the door, foot on brake, hit the start button, and the steering wheel comes down, as the seat begins to slide forward for a split second, stops for a split second, then completes it's slide forward to the driving position.

Is this hesitation normal, or should the seat sliding forward be one fluid motion?

Mine goes forward in one motion.

Thanks. I figured it should. And I swear sometimes it does when I'm not paying attention.

Perhaps there is an obstruction or dead spot on the seat track?

What is that little nub next to the start button?
