As the thread title says, the driver's side seat of my MME GT isn't moving forward anymore. It did when I first accepted delivery this week. But one of the times I turned off the vehicle the seat moved all the way back (even though my profile says to use position 1, which I had saved). Since then it acts like it is struggling to move the seat forward if I tap forward. Holding the button forward doesn't do anything.

Checked my passenger side and it works as I'd expect.

Before I take it in I was wondering if anyone knew of a setting or something I may be overlooking that "locks" the forward position of the seat.

Does it work going backward or does it struggle? Can you see under the seat? Does it look like it’s unobstructed?

I'll check on both things and get back to you.

It seemed to be related to the "Easy Out" setting that moves the seat back automatically. I changed this and it worked a little better. I also park on a hill and it seems to not like my weight moving uphill. What's weird is that the passenger has absolutely no issue with my weight on the same hill.
