I know this sounds lame but I can't seem to find in the owners manual if the drivers seat is always programed to go all the way back when you shut off the engine. Yes I am new to Vettes, only had my 99 for five days. Can you stop this or is it going to happen to allow the driver easier exiting. Thanks, Tom

There is a configuration under "Options" in the DIC. I think it is called "Easy Entry" or something like that. Hit "Reset" to change it from "On" to "Off".

Here's the info from the '99 owner's manual:

Easy Entry
The easy entry feature will only be available if the
vehicle is equipped with the memory option.
Press the OPTIONS button until SEAT EASY ENTRY
appears on the display, then use the RESET button to
page through the following choices:
 SEAT EASY ENTRY ON
 SEAT EASY ENTRY OFF
If you choose SEAT EASY ENTRY ON, when you turn the
ignition off and remove the key, the seat will automatically
move back and the telescopic steering wheel (if equipped)
will return to its full-forward position for an easy exit or an
easy entrance when returning to the vehicle.
SEAT EASY ENTRY OFF turns off this option.

It's on Page 2-101.
