Sure, test the dealers theory. Old pants, some graphite from a pencil only on the switch. Mask off the surrounding upholstery if fabric. Drive around, get in and out, look for marks on your pants and motion of the seat. If there are marks and motion, the dealer is right, no marks or no motion, the dealer is wrong. Video or pictures of the results to show the dealer.

I guess the OP means the height adjustment lever . Scerini , does anyone else have this problem when they get in and out of the vehicle ?
