Electric drivers seat shifts 1 to 2 inches forward durring moderate to hard breaking. I have already brought the car in one time to fix it. It was fine for about two months, but the problem has returned. It feels very unsafe.

2004 acura tsx driver's seat movement - during normal driving and stopping, driver's seat will frequently shift or move approximately .25"-.50" after several months of experiencing this, vehicle was taken to acura dealer (arizona) and inspected. Vehicle was returned without repair where issue was diagnosed as acceptable. On several occasions there has been sufficient seat movement to cause driver to temporarily lose contact with clutch (manual transmission model) due to foot slipping off clutch pedal.
