Default unwanted easy-exit

I've read quite a few threads on similar issues, but haven't seen a solution. My '04 C5Z driver's seat moves all the way back when I unlock via key remote. The easy-exit feature is off. I've disconnected the battery, same result. The battery isn't weak, plus its on a trickle charger.

Any suggestions?

try the other key fob.. the unlock of the door from the fob is triggering the seat memory. the Easy exit feature should only happen when the car is shut off and key removed from the ignition.

Set both memory seat positions to the same spot i bet it goes away.
