Hey guys, so on november 2nd i went to the dealer for an oil change, and they moved the position of my seat to install my weathertech floorliners. so when adjusting the seat forward, it moved properly BUT when moving the seat back position more upright, it felt as if there was some "play" in the motor.

I pushed the button forward to move the seatback more upright and i heard the motor move but not the seat...then 1 second later, the seatback started to move...same thing when lowering the seatback...it seems like the motor is moving and winding up a string that has too much slack and then the string finally moves the object.

anyone experience this with their 3 with power seats?? try yours out and let me know if the instant you push on the button....the seat moves or is there that "loose" feeling"

My sister had a very similar problem with her 2010 as well. Took half a dozen visits to the dealer to get it fixed. They needed to replace the motor (but it took them puttering around with parts here and there to actually figure that out .... gotta love the "premium" service from dealers...)

Good luck!
