Runaway Drivers Seat

Sorry if this is a repeat but I tried posting this before and I never did see it posted. Anyway I got in my car ( 2000 C4 996 ) and the seat back started automatically moving ahead. It actually pinned me against the steering wheel. I managed to get out and reset the seat using the memory button. I again sat in the car and the back startted moving. After pushing down on the seat in several places I manged to make it move. I reset the seat to my memory position and removed the fuse for the drivers seat. That allows me to drive the car safely.

My question is if anyone has heard of this before. Any insight into where the problem might be. Do I need to remove the seat or is there anything that I can acces by removing the switch panel on the side of the seat. The thought of the seat taking off while driving is a bit frightening. Imagine being pressed firmly against the steering wheel hitting something and having the air bag go off.
