Have you tried shutting the car off, getting out, putting it to sleep by locking the doors and then waiting 15 minutes? Funny things happen with the computers form time to time.

Last week, I noticed all of my presets were gone and my steering wheel didn't drop down to its memory position, although the seat did go to the correct position. I had to re enter the presets, but after shutting down/sleep/wait/restart, the strewing wheel position was working fine.

Or a fuse, or a loose wire. Could easily be something simple.
