Default Weird seat issue on 2015 XLT

I picked up my truck 3 weeks ago. The next day, I played around with the seat and adjusted it to how I want it. Over the past 3 weeks...I've noticed something:

The seat reclines on it's own.

The past 5-6 times I've gotten in the truck after letting it sit a day or two, I'll get in the truck and the seat is reclined further back. I'll adjust it to how it was then park it for the night and get in the truck the next day and it's reclined back yet again needing another adjustment.

The first 3-4 times I thought I was hitting the seat recline when getting out but I've paid special attention to it the past 3-4 days and that's not the case. It's doing it on it's own.

If the truck sits 3-4 hours, the seat is in the same position but over night and longer, it's quite a bit back. Slight issue but I don't plan on having to adjust my seat every day for the next 3 years.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Haven't noticed that issue with mine. Sounds like a trip to the dealership is in order.

That or it had aspirations of being a low rider during production. Seat reclined all the way back...one hand on the wheel...listening to some Mexican music.

Viva la raza, essay!

Oh man, you need to setup a small cam with time lapse over night on that crap


I would not be happy with that issue either.

Now ya'll got me scared....

Who wants a 2015 XLT? Mint condition, front/back Husky WeatherBeater floor lining...slightly to severely haunted. Asking $100.00.

Pick up only as I will not enter the vehicle upon any condition.

Is your truck kept outside with the doors unlocked? Maybe someone is messing with you! Like making your pants smaller so you think your gaining weight! Some people love mind games!
