Is anyone having an issue with the driver's seat shifting when making a turn where your body weight shifts in the seat? The movement is very slight. I can't tell if it is the seat cushion or seat mechanism. Had it at Ford and they could not find anything wrong. There is no sound associated with the shifting. I just feel the give. Thanks!

Driver's Seat Shifting

The seats aren't really supportive and don't have any significant side bolters to be considered "sport" seats but certainly there should be no physical shifting of the seat! Maybe check the edges of the seat to make sure the material is fastened properly. These are really cheap seats and it's surprising how the leather interfaces with the plastic on the edges. Just a bunch of clips.

I've had the same issue. I have over 10,000 miles on mine. It is a slight pivot/shift where the seat mounts are. I figured its too minor that a tech wouldn't be able to pick it up and do anything about it. I ended up going to the ST experience in Asheville, NC and didn't have that pivot or shifting in the STs the let us drive.
Found the TSB. Bringing her in next Saturday to fix. See following link.
