WHILE DRIVING, DOME LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND DRIVER'S SEAT MOVED TO FARTHEST POSITION BACK AS IF EXITING THE VEHICLE. THIS PROBLEM IS HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY WHILE DRIVING. THIS PROBLEM ALSO HAPPENS WHEN TURNING ON HEADLIGHTS OR MOVING GEAR SELECTOR FROM PARK TO DRIVE OR REVERSE. IT IS INTERMITTENT, BUT HAPPENS DAILY. A PERSON SHORTER THAN I, WILL LOOSE CONTACT WITH BREAK AND ACCELERATOR PEDALS. TAPPING ON KEYS MAY RETURN SEAT TO A MORE FORWARD POSITION. AS AN ENGINEER, I SEE THIS AS A MANUFACTURER'S SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE RESOLVED BY THE MANUFACTURER AND NOT THE CUSTOMER. *TR
