    While driving my vehicle, my driver side seat will move by itself. It's happened several times and is very scary knowing i cant reach the gas or brake pedal while driving when it happens. My heated seat doesnt work properly either i dont know if this is all part of the problem or not. The side airbag on my driver seat also is bulged out more then it should be i believe.

    After starting vehicle, air bag indicator light comes on (not every time) and seat moves to the ignition off position. Turn engine off and restart and air bag light and seat position may operate correctly but not always. If it occurs again, only after turning vehicle off and restarting a number of times will the air bag light and seat position remain in the correct positions.
