Does anyone know if the 2016 or 2017 and maybe the 2018 has the automatic seat adjustment when you take your seatbelt off? I'm driving a 2017 RX and the seat automatically pulls back and the steering wheel lifts up for you to exit. This will prevent further wear on the bolsters when getting in and out of the car. Does the 2015 have this feature because mine doesn't do that? I need to have it.

 

Yes, on our RX450h the steering wheel retracts and the driver seat retracts back as well. The RCF doesn't do it.

I just program the seat memory button #3 to a position where the steering wheel retracts and seat retracts. So when I'm ready to get out of my RCF, I just hit the #3 button and it's all good!!

 

Simple and efficient.
I'm going to do this too now haha.

 

Also, I am going to do this on my GS350 for when I am warming up the car and need to get out...haha


X2.

 

I guess the Lexus HQ engineers did not program this feature into the RCF (as in the RX) because there isn't much room behind the driver? IDK. Seemed to me it would be easy to program this in.

 

The GS F does this if you enable it. It also makes it nearly impossible to reach the door to close it if the door is wide open. I turned it off for that reason.

 

The reason why they didn't put this feature in the RC-F is because if you have a passenger riding in back of the driver, as soon as the seat starts moving back, it'll crush the back passenger's legs... literally lol... there's barely any room as it is in the back, now imagine moving the seat all the way back with someone in it

 

#5 above. 😀😀😀😀😀😁😁😁😁

 

It has an auto stop feature though. It will detect resistance and stop if there's something stopping it's travel.

 

While seat doesnt move when I exit the steering wheel does retract for an easy exit.
