Driver seat won't lay back

[tdaggers9]

I have had the same issues with my 2020 ST. Apparently they fixed the problem but shortly after the seat decided to choose its own positions. This morning my seat did the same thing yours did… almost went up to a 90 degree angle and refuses to go back. Will have to take it in again.

Kate did you get yours fixed? I just bout a 2020 Ford Explorer two days ago. Only had 17K miles on it. This morning I got ready to go to work and the seat leaned all the way forward against the steering wheel. Then when I tried to lean the seat back, it would only go back to straight up right - it's very uncomfortable to drive and I can't find a way to fix it short of taking it in for a warranty claim.

FYI, Kate may no longer be following this thread. That was her one and only post. See post #19 for that member's fix. You ultimately may have to go to the dealer to get it repaired. Sometimes disconnecting the negative battery cable for 10 minutes or so will fix some issues but it's not a guarantee and you may lose a few saved settings.

I have a 20 ST and been having issues with my driver's seat module. It's been in the dealership 3 times now for same reasons. After a while the drivers seat will just go all the way forward and tilt all the way in when selecting memory setting.

Also, now it won't lay back at all. Just goes to roughly a hair past 90 degrees. Makes driving not all the comfy.

Everytime I take it in they go and reprogram and or say we couldn't duplicate the issue. Well, I am not happy to say the least. One time I was drivi g and the seat decided on its own to collapse forward all the way to the steering wheel. Thankfully I was able to pull over real fast. This is not safe. Anyone else have this issue?

Did you figure out your problem
