Anybody else experiencing issues with your R1S/T remembering multiple driver positions?

I'm the primary driver of our R1S and at least a few times a month i'll hop in, tap the brake to get my seat oriented and it will stop half-way. When I click into the driver menu the 'restore' button is greyed out. This makes no sense since my seat is NOT in my set driver position.

I would think that at any point if the seat / steering wheel was even slightly off the 'stored' driver position, the restore button should activate and become clickable.

Also, one more weird issue where i'll get into the vehicle, tap the pedal to get the seat/steering wheel moving and my windshield wipers will do a single swipe.

wondering if anybody else has experienced these issues. They're obviously not deal-breakers, but the seat position not hitting the desired position is super annoying when i'm in a hurry and looking to get going.

Yeah, happened occasionally, the seat adjusts a little bit and calls it “done” and it definitely wasn’t right.

I am only one driver but my multiple personalities are usually happy with the positions.

damn, that's frustrating; hopefully they release a fix for the driver positions system; shouldn't be this glitchy.

Mine works ~70% of the time. Usually the steering wheel just doesn't slide out into position. The times it does, it makes the farting sound (maybe its a cold weather thing). A slight fix is switching profile to my wife, then back to me. Usually fixes it.

Only driver, but occasionally mine doesn't do it correctly. Usually if you undo the seat belt and/or open the door and then hit the brake pedal again it gets it right the second try. Also noticed that if the seat/wheel are moving and you hit any of the buttons on the steering wheel before they stop...then it'll stop wherever it is and you have to do the above to reset it again.

i don't know what changed but mine also recently started making the farting/rubbing sound as well.

ya, that's usually how i fix it, swap to my wifes profile then back. the restore button should be for that purpose though and mine is always greyed out.

Try pushing down firmly on the peddle rather than "tapping".
I have this issue also, but a firm peddle push helps.

I have to recalibrate about once a week. This is a feature that worked great on a Cadillac I had 18 years ago...

It has happened to us a couple of times. My wife is 5'1" and I am 6'2". One time I got in and sat down but then it started to adjust to her settings.......it was funny......almost had the baby maker squished.
