Seat memory???
I am very confused on how my seats work in my truck. They seem to have a feature where they move back and give more room for egress when the truck is turned off. When the truck is started, the seats move forward into a predetermined possition. That is all great. However, I stopped the truck this weekend and went to roll down the window after the truck was off, so I needed to turn the key back on to adjust the window. When I turned the key on, I was pushed way forward, and the seat height was changed. Nothing near what I would ever have set it for. The key set is the same keys I have been using to drive the truck since I have owned it. Is this normal, or is something wrong with the seat operation?
Any insight is appreciated.

Please the seat like you want - height, tilt, distance etc, the press and hold the 1 seat button at the front of the arm rest for a second or two. That should reset it for you.

Well, since my wife has driven my truck less than 10 times in 15 years of owning diesel trucks, she really dosn't need a setting. Probably why I have never researched the 1/2 button. Where is it? I use the mirror fold function all the time, as well as the towing mirror extend. Just have never noticed a seat setting selection, probably sets the radio and other personal choices per the driver?

I think that you maybe able to disable the feature in the message center.
Don't know for sure but worth checking the owners manual

My wife's explorer the keyless remotes are sync'd to the memory position too.
My key puts the seat in my spot, her key seat is in her spot. Very cool.
I am leary of the "move the seat all the way to get in or out", seems like the seat motor is going to wear out sooner.
