Check the electrical connectors for your seat controls, maybe you have some condensation or corrosion in there?

It'* the Missus or Signifigant Other... She has your car booby-trapped!

2 places to check. As suggested, the connector under your seat control switches in the center console, especially if anything ever got spiled there. Remove the 2 torx screws under the ashtray, remove the clip on the forward part of the shifter handle. Lift the shifter handle off, and lift the console up from the front (pivots at the rear). You may be able to just pop the switch pod up without doing this, but it can make it easier to check everything under there.

The other possibility is the black box mounted under the leading edge of the driver'* seat. That'* the relay/control box for the seat functions. Same thing on this connector.
