    Trying to troubleshoot an issue with the passenger seat. When the seat base is moved at all the seat back moves forward a couple of inches. I disconnected the connector to see if it would reset but no luck. Any other thoughts? Thanks in advance.

    There's a maximum the seat base can be put back, before the seat-back itself has to move slightly forward to allow for not hitting the bulkhead. It makes the seat-back move sometimes when lowering or raising the seat, or going backwards with it, happens on mine whenever someone tall gets in

    Still researching since the car has to be transported to the dealership, but there is a "switch" on the bulk head which apparently is designed to stop seat movement when the seat back engages it. However, when the seat is moving and the switch is manually engaged it does not stop the movement.

    The dealership service manager says he has never heard of this issue, so it looks like it's going in the trailer.

    I've seen a similar issue, but in that case the seat would not stay back, it would move forward and actually fold the seat back forward too. It was due to a faulty sensor. You might have something similar.
