My wife was using the car today and asked if it's normal that the driver seat returns to the #1 position each time she turns off the car - requiring her to push #2 each time she restarted? It seems odd they would use such logic, but then one dosen't have to look far to raise eyebrows about some of Ford Engineering logic.
Can anyone confirm whether this is normal or whether there is background setting that defeats auto return to driver position #1 with each power down? Thanks
I am going to guess she is using your keyfob. In that case, Seat Position #1 is paired with that fob and every time the car starts up with that fob, it will revert to position #1. Try setting up the other fob for seat position #2 and have her try that one...I am going to bet it will always default to position #2 for her.
Linking a PreSet Position to your Remote Control or Intelligent Access Key Fob
Your vehicle can save the preset memory positions for up to three remote controls or intelligent access (IA) keys.
- With the ignition on, move the memory positions to the desired positions.
- Press and hold the desired preset button for about five seconds. A tone sounds after about two seconds. Continue holding until you hear a second tone.
- Within three seconds, press the lock button on the remote control you are linking.
To unlink a remote control, follow the same procedure – except in step 3, press the unlock button on the remote control.
Note: If more than one linked remote control or intelligent access key is in range, the memory function moves to the settings of the first key to recall a memory position.
