Default Seats and sterring wheel...

When i turn off the engine, the seats and the steering wheel does not automatically retrieve back making more room to get out. All my other lexus do that. Also when you unlock and enter to start the engine, the seats and steering wheel to not adjust. I have to press the memory 1.
Is there a setting for that.
Thank you.

Same here, the loaner RX has that function. Would be great if LC has.

It doesn't My ISF didn't do it either What I did on both cars, is set memory position 3 all the way back. Before I exit I press the 3 button. Sort of clunky - but it is what it is

After checking with the dealer, the LC500 seat cannot automatically slide back like other Lexus models. The steering wheel will automatically retract. I set a position in the memory for exiting — not great but it works.

Yup I do the same - I set my memory button #3 to all the way back.

Thank you.
You can program the steering wheel to raise and retract when turning ignition off, then come back down to the preference setting when turning the ignition on.

If you can get what you want via a memory seat setting, why can't Lexus do it for you by design as they do in other models?

^^^^Yes, so did my 1993 SC300 5MT. But, as I said above, my ISF didn't do it either. Why didn't Lexus do it

Just wonder how short (longitudinally challenged?) someone needs to be in order to need this feature. The seat in out track Lotus Elise is bolted to place, will not move at all.
