Default Easy access system drivers seat & steering wheel

I've looked everywhere on the GS 350 4th gen and can't find a topic on this. I noticed a few days ago that my drivers seat and steering wheel don't move when I turn the engine off or on and/or I open the driver's door. I know it did it when I test drove the vehicle. I have my seat, steering wheel and review mirrors set on the #1 setting and it works fine. I also checked the personal settings and my drivers seat easy exit is set to the FULL position. Don't know what else to check, please help.

I have had this problem a couple of times, all I have done is with the ignition on, pressed the seat memory 1 button, everything moves into place and that seemed to rectify it.
Iam not sure but I think it happens if you move the seat without the ignition on, I have done this when hovering out the car.

Thanks Chris! My problem, is my memory is set on memory #1 button and it is good, never moves out of place. But it makes entering & exit a bit tough is how I came to notice that my easy access isn't working. My seat nor my steering wheel isn't moving to give me easy access going in or out. It's as if...once I set my memory that stopped working. Does that make sense?

Thanks!

Take off your seat belt and it'll move back. Also check in the system settings, make sure easy out goes full back.

Okay KDSR you are correct!! My problem was... I have an extension and I wasn't removing it therefore when you mentioned take off my seat belt, it struck a brain cell that even though I'm taking off my seat belt, my extension is still in. So I took it out and badda bing, it worked. Thanks so much!

Thanks for helping out! It didn't make sense to me either until it dawned on me that my extension was still in the seat belt's place.
