I've had the same problem with my seat not going back and the steering wheel not going up. The dealer is still trying to figure out why but I've figured out a work around.
 
Put the car in park and take the key out of the ignition. Adjust your seat, steering wheel, mirrors and radio stations to the desired position. Press the set button, press the 1 or 2 button and then press the door lock button on your key fob.
 
If you do this, it should work correctly. I don't know why you have to use the key fob to get the memory to hold. I have the personal settings for the key fob set to OFF so the seat shouldn't move when I unlock the door. Don't know why but it seems to work this way. Haven't had any issues since I set it with the key fob.
 
I'll let you know if the dealer comes up with a reason why it has to work this way. Don't hold your breath.

Thanks for your help, so far it has been working.
I was trying to get the dealer to install a factory sirius radio for all the the time I spent there with the seat problem,no luck from them. br>
Finally the service manager to talked with his district manager and they installed it at no charge. Try it and see if they will pop for something you want.

Seat Memory via Key Fob by hankc

Has anyone had a problem activating this feature? I can't seem to get mine to work. I went for a 1000 mile checkup at my dealer today and they couldn't get it to work either. I have to drop the vehicle tomorrow AM so they can spend more time on it.
 
Is anyone using this feature?

Works most of the time for me, although I haven't "locked" the fob to a setting (as the manual puts it).
 
What is working for me is the seat and wheel moving when removing the key, then moving back when the key goes back in. I have also set Memory Position 1 via the door, and have pressed 1 to recall the settings after the dealer changed seat position, etc.
 
With only one driver, I have not tried to "lock" the fob to setting 1.

Hankc
 
I've had this "loss Memory on seat" it seems that the seat has to be set forward more then the 2" stated in the manual to stay set. I'm playing with different setting to see what the tolerances are, keep you posted..

OK had the same problem, here is the fix. Hit the S-1-Lock in fast sequence, as in, 1 second, while key is in run position. Kind of like the older Walkman's station settings. No 10 seconds allowed, as stated in the Manual. Took me several tries to get it. Now on to the Garage Door Opener, have not been able to program that so far. Fantastic car, Traded my 2002 300M, this is much better in every respect.

This seems to be a problem with the 300's.We just had ours done yesterday for the 8th time!!! They have no answer for this yet.They just keep reflashing it.They hooked it up to STAR SCAN this time so maybe it will work.

Yours is a 2005 mine is A '06,I hear more problems with the '05 more than the '06s.The 300 and Charger are made together so what you have I have,only differance is the year.There are more Tech bullitens on '05 300s compared to the '06.Don't forget the first year car has more problems than the second and so on.Some time it takes a couple of years for something to show up and have a bulliten for all the cars.

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!
