Abstract
A vehicle seat for a motor vehicle includes a seat bottom and a seatback displaceable relative to one another. A seat positioning system has an actuator for displacing one of the seat bottom and the seatback toward the other of the seat bottom and the seatback. The system further includes a position sensor for generating a seat position signal indicative of a position of one of the seat bottom and the seatback relative to the other of the seat bottom and the seatback. The system further includes a controller for generating an activation signal in response to the controller determining that the position is above the position threshold. The actuator displaces one of the seat bottom and the seatback toward the other of the seat bottom and the seatback in response to the actuator receiving the activation signal from the controller.
