Default drivers seat

Is the drivers seat supposed to go all the way back and down when you turn the motor off , then , move back into preset position when motor started up ??


My Gx does not , well , I think it did one or 2 times , my Infiniti does it perfectly

My extended warranty is up in a week or so and I believe this is covered
Thanks

My 2004 does not do this. Just the steering wheel moves.

08 Doesn't do that either. I know that feature is available in RX but after 2010.

Hope it helps.

A quick workaround for this if you do not have two drivers positions already set.
If Memory Preset Button #1 is set for driving, set #2 with the seat back as far as
required for ease of exit. Tap #2 when exiting the car and it will "advance to the rear".

It might be something that can be set in Techstream?

Does not have that entry exit feature, just the steering wheel,which can be changed by the dealer.
