Driver Seat Rocking...

I went to the dealership last saturday to buy an oi filter. While waiting, I told the service manager that the driver seat was rocking and to check if there was any service bulletin issued about it. At first he said no but when I told him i saw something on the internet, he looked again and found it. Bottom line, I made an appointment for yesterday and they told me that the left seat track needs to be changed. Now, i'm just waiting for them to let me know when they get the part.

Just thought of sharing it with you guys.

I've been to the dealer for new seat bushings like 4 times & each time the seat gets worse!
Just leave it alone...I think I was better off before the drunk mechanic started messiin with my seat.

i have the same problem. I took it to the dealer and they said that it's normal for our cars. It just bugs to have my seat start rocking every once and a while

I finally took my car to a different dealer for warranty work on the seat & viola!
No more rocking...This thing is tight & nice..It really improves the ride.
Huge difference...Hope it lasts!
