I've had this happen in both of my 03's, a DX and an EX.

I checked all the bolts--it might be the catch. To tell you the truth, I just gave 'em a whack and they settled into place.

I use the all the way back to the last notch. Have not noticed this on mid-range notches.

rocking seat fixed - I unbolted the seat today , without disconnecting any wires I tilted the seat back and saw two gold nuts on each seat side, located behind the plastic trim. I tightened all four and seat was good and secure. Thanks, Ed
