Default front seat does not move forward

Hi all, I have just picked up my RC-F, the dealer noticed that when you move the back of the drivers seat forward the seat does not move forward to allow passengers into the back seat,, passenger side works fine, he is going to contact Lexus technical on Monday, but thought i would see if any owners have any ideas.

I can confirm that both of my seats move forward when you lean them forward. I'm sure its an easy fix at the dealer.

Although I do envy you guys for owning an RCF. This is why I do not buy a first year of a new model or redisgn. First the Lexus NX with the locked/frozen Nav and multimedia screen and now the RCF with seat sliding problems. I'll wait a model year pr two before I make my purchase.

To OP nice car btw.

mine just started working just by itself, have you had anyone sitting in the passenger side seat, i have a feeling as the car was new the back of the seat was not going forward enough to operate the system to move the seat forward, try moving the back of the seat backwards and forwards a few time putting slight pressure on the back of the seat pushing it towards the windscreen.
