I have a manual seat adjustment (not electric). I am pulling the release lever to slide the seat forward for for my short legs, but the release spring/wire slips off some how. It keeps happening.

I had this problem not to long ago, it's a very easy fix! I agree with that garr651!
There is a a thin metal wire that runs from the left & right side under the seat. Each end of the wire loops around a small hole on each track bracket and is held in place by two small washers that fit inside a grove.
Check to see if the washers are in the groves and holing each end of the wire tightly. If they're not simply slide them back into place and make sure the wire tight.
The easiest way to do this is to look under the driver seat from the back seat. Also a pair of needle nose pliers may become handy (although not necessary).

each function has its own electric motor, the most common cause of this is the control switch, the next problem would be the motor, if it is a motor try and find a used one, Honda wants about $2000.00 for a new seat track assembly.

I wouldn't ruin anything by trying things yourself
I would have a dealer check it out
The dealer I used in the past, has a seat specialist come
in on Wed only, around 5:30 after the service bays close
& one service writer hangs out until that person fixes a
couple vehicles seat issues
