Power control for seat in a bad place
Question:
My 1998 Explorer has the electric power control on the side of the seat at the bottom, and many times when I’m fastening my seatbelt, the belt presses the power button and my seat starts going up/down, forward/backward. At first I didn’t know what was happening…I thought I was on one of those electric pony rides at the amusement park, but then realized it was my seat belt. Anyone else have this happen?
Response:
No, but the first time I ever pressed the "memory" button on the door panel, I thought I was sitting in a trash compactor as it ran the seat all the way forward. I couldn’t move! That was just plain scary. Don
