the real safety issue is my wife getting into this car with the seat 4 inches to far back and the relay fails and she has to drive it with her feet 4 inches further away from the clutch and peering through a steering wheel spoke...now that's a safety issue. Never heard of a death in a car because the seats moved with the ignition off. I suppose kids playing in a car could run the seat all the way up but...where is that a safety issue.
I would say the safety issue is that there is power to the seat motors all the time, even with the ignition OFF. So if the car goes up in smoke one day you may know the reason.
