Power Seat self actuated and locked in forward lean. Seat Height adjustment also failed. Dlr diagnosed to switch and sensor/limit switch integrated in track assembly - a $2300.00 part just out of warranty. After seat control repair, agent told me car was 'slow cranking', recommended new battery. As it was around 4+ years old I agreeed. Also did an oil change this trip. Paid another $170 or so was for these 2 items.

28000 mi The day after the car returned from a recall repair on a component of the front-passenger seatbelt assembly, an airbag warning light illuminated. The dealer replaced the full seatbelt assembly. I assume the problem came from faulty recall repairs. 
30000 mi Retractable sunshade raised itself halfway and refused to go down, and made a buzzing noise. Dealer put it out of the way for now -- an extensive procedure, apparently -- and has ordered parts to get it permanently fixed.

21000 mi I took the car in for a headlight adjustment...the low beams were too high and this seems to have been a problem that excessively got worse. 
46000 mi Battery cables do not stay on posts, even after repeated tightening and this causes electrical system to indicate a malfunction in charging system(alternator). Repeated tightening works only for a little while, vibration may be cause.
