"Try this: Move your seat full forward, then full back. Then tilt your seat full forward then full back. After you have completed the above, re-set your adjustment memory to your desired settings and then try the easy exit feature again. Good luck!"
Thank you so much, I have been wondering what was going on, and now it is fixed! The seat moves back on exit.

Who are you and how did you know this? The "reset" performed at the dealer lasted one engine start (and cost me all my radio presets). So far so good on day three with your fix. Thanks. Any other helpful hints? This did seem remarkably similar to the reset fix for loosing the express up/down window feature.....

Hi: I’m Gary from Broken Arrow Ok. I’ve had my Black ‘C’ for 1 ½ yrs and really love the car. It’s my first Chrysler product ever. No mods except for 15% tint. I’m sure glad my solution for fixing the ‘Easy Exit’ feature has helped you all. I took my car in for the same problem a year ago and when my dealer fixed it, I asked what they did and he told me. Seems as though the ‘system’ will sometimes loose it’s memory on the maximum travel stops, so it just stops working. Going through the steps that I have outlined restores the max travel limits and gives the ‘Green Light’ to function again. Like you’ve said, with all of the fancy electronic thingy’s now days, I think you should expect a few problems.
I have the Navigation System with Sound Group II and I’ve learned to use both with very satisfactory results. If any of you need help on using either one, let me know. Perhaps I can help.
Regards, Gary

Howdy neighbor, I'm Vic from Tulsa. Happy to say aside from the occasional loss of the window express feature, the now cured easy exit seat, a one time loss of radio volume (sort of fixed itself), and finally a fix for a tempermental passenger window (new controller installed by Crown), my Sept05 Magnesium pearl "C" has been trouble free--remarkably so with all the gadgets. I've always preferred GM (previous 2 cars were Buicks) but this Chrysler is a winner for me. Take care and enjoy the ride.....

Hi, I'm Ed from Charleston, SC. We (wife and I) have had our Satin Jade C for a year and 15000 miles (turned today on a 720 mile trip). So far, so good. Ours has no Navigation (haven't gotten lost yet  but has Sirius and Sound Group II, a moonroof, and safety package. We are enjoying it more and more. Big, comfortable and powerful.
I will come here for more tips when any electronic things go haywire. The moving seat back on exit now works great thanks to Gary!

I was getting ready to make a fourth trip to the dealer and saw Gary's tip on setting the seat. I tried it and it works!! Hope it will stay that way. Now if the ESP BAS light would stop coming on in the morning it would be great. I have a second appointment to get that checked.

Re: ESP BAS light. Mine stared with a morning light, then would stay on for a day or so, then became permanent. The dealer should be able to fix it easily since it's computer activated and all you need to do is interrogate the module. My problem was, of all things, a steering angle sensor.

I had an appointment for today and took mine in. The dealer said the diagnostics didn't show anything. (naturally the light started staying off for a couple of days before the appointment) so they called Chrysler and were told to order a new module. While they were at it they ordered a new module for the seat. They said the moving the seat was a temporary fix. While they were at it they ordered a new fuel pump since it cranks longer than normal on a cold start. Glad I have 2,000 miles to go on the warrenty
