If you are the only driver set Mem1 to the all the way back position..........

Set Mem2 to your driving position.......... this way using the D1 key fob your seat will be in the way back positon when you enter - once your are in hit Mem2 on the door and your seat will adjust to drive...........

I haven't done it but it might be a solution

The Nissan Maxima (all the way back to 2002) does this if the car is an automatic. In the current body style, the steering wheel also powers up and out of the way.

It is really that important????????????????? I get out just fine. I am 6'1" 185# I sometimes adjust it forward or backward anyway. Every day is different. I don't even use the stupid memory crap Who needs it. I always keep the seat angled as much as possible. The grip I have is the passenger seat having limited movement. But I hardly ever sit there

The Drivers seat is a power 10-way. Passenger is power 4-way. Drivers seat is more comfortable then any car I sat in at the 07 Chicago Auto Show IMO.

I am 6"3' and I have no problems getting in and out... After driving the TSX loaner for some time, I really liked TL's seats today. TSX seats are narrow.

Thanks All. I Really Did Not Mean To Step On Any Owners Toes. Believe Me, I Do Love My Car. I Actually Traded My 2005 Gto In For This Beauty.

I agree, I'm 5'10", 250lb, and have no problems getting in and out of the TL.

Memory seats are a definite requirement for me if the significant other drives the car, but it's just me in the TL.

My wife's MDX has NO memory, but her previous BMW did. I'm forever banging my knees if I forget to move the seat back before getting in the MDX.

And I DEFINITELY agree about the TL passenger seat. VERY uncomfortable when compared to the adjustments of the driver seat. I've never been in my passenger seat, but have taken long road trips in my friend's TL as the passenger, and it drives me crazy.
