While i was driving, the driver electric seat began adjusting itself. when i tried to return it to its position, it laid back more. i selected the position memory button and it did not return it to its position. the seat continued to recline until it was fully reclined. thankfully my grandchildren were not with me as it could have hurt them in their booster seats. would request that all electric seats have a manual override built in to avoid unintended injury and escape from the safety engineering approved for the vehicle. the owners manual has several pages on proper seat adjustment but nothing on how to correct a faulty electric seat that does not respond as intended. this would allow the safety and hazard prevention engineered into the design to continue until service was available and would prevent unintentional injury if service was not available immediately
I was stopped at a redlight at an intersection, when i was rear ended by a car. my son and i were in the front seats. we were wearing our seatbelts. we were thrown frontward and then thrown backward. my sons seat was laying completely flat. my seat had flown back and hit my wife, who was sitting behind me,wearing her seatbelt. my injuries were a broken right fibula and left rib clinical fractures. my sons injuries were a concussion and whiplash. my wife had facial abrasions and left rib clinical fractures. we were all transported to the hospital by ambulance, had numerous testing done, spent the night and half the next day. left the hospital still in pain.
