Steering wheel does NOT return to Drivers Position

[GeneLarioux]

Hi Folks - I have a 2009 4.6, bought in December last year. Car has 1900 miles on it. Lately, when I press the ignition button (with foot on brake), only the seat returns to the "drivers position" as the car starts. The steering wheel remains in the "Easy Access" (upright) position. This occurs about 80% of the time. The other 20%, BOTH the seat and the steering wheel return to my drivers position.

Anyone else experiencing this? It's driving me NUTS.

Take it in for service, they'll fix it up. I think there was a TSB for this issue.

Yes. There is a TSB for this. I took mine in and they took care of it.

I have a similar problem. I have a 2010 V-8 Sedan. I'll set the steering wheel position and then over the course of a week or two it will slowly lose that setting and will eventually return to a lower elevation setting. I.e., it will drop down. Not as I'm driving but when I put the key in the holder (which is when the seat and steering wheel go to their pre-set positions), over time the steering stops going to the setting I set and instead it will go to a factory position, which is lower than where I set it to. I'll check the TSB and get with the dealer.

I think it goes back to the last position before shutting off. This may or may not be your memory position.

My Genesis trained technician at my dealers service department did the job in less than an hour. Mine was not the first he did, so he knew what he was doing.
