| Either while driving or after an overnight idle, i often find the driver power seat has moved and reset itself. this happens intermittently and sometimes re-setting the seat is not possible. seat position locks back too far and too low. taking it to the myrtle beach hyundai dealer (6/28) proved futile. after a short examination the technician said he found nothing wrong. since then i have sporadically encountered the same unpredictability in the seat. i am concerned that the seat's moving while i'm driving could cause an accident. please advise. i need some help here. thank you. *tr | |||

| While driving the driver's side seat back automatically moved to it's forward position. after returning it to it's normal position it would start moving by itself again after a short time. the only way to stop it was to hold the lever in the down position which would also make the seat move down at times. | |||
