A vehicle seat slide comprises a movable track member slidably engaging a fixed track member for sliding movement between rearward and forward track positions. A track lock is mounted on the movable track member to selectively restrain the movable track member relative to the fixed track member at an intermediate track position. An actuator is provided for operative connection with the track lock for movement between an actuating configuration whereat the actuator urges the track lock away from a locking configuration and a rest configuration whereat the actuator permits the track lock to move into the locking configuration. A controller is provided for contact with the actuator, so as to cause the actuator to be held in the actuating configuration upon the movable track member being moved to the forward track position and for thereafter permitting the actuator to return to the rest configuration only after movement of the movable track member to a position rearward of the intermediate track position.
