Default Leg room in 2013 RX350. Knees hit the steering post

How can I increase the leg room in a RX350? My knees hit the steering post.

Have you tried lowering the driver's seat and raising the steering column?

Do your knees hit while driving or when you are entering or exiting?

Does the seat move back when you shut the car off? There is a setting with 3 options to move the driver seat back and retract the steering wheel when the car is shut off. It then moves them back when you start the car.

I have long legs and the steering wheel also was hitting my legs but only entering and exiting. The steering wheel when cut off would retract and by doing so would also go lower. The dealer change the setting so the wheel would not retract and now all is well.
