Thanks for the helpful suggestions and support, guys. I shall continue to collect data. I've repositioned the tape and now that it's stopped raining I'll go outside and lock/unlock several times, on both doors, to see if anything happens.
Oops.. I misread that. But yeah, obviously I'm not suggesting that you be unsafe in your attempts to diagnose the situation. If you can get it to do it at least twice, that would be good data. That is, assuming it doesn't go from perfect position to unsafe in one "creep". To me, it doesn't look like the tape moved that much.

But if you need to, maybe, you start with the seat just a bit farther back in your testing to allow for that second "creep". This might not be too bad since you don't have to deal with a clutch pedal.
