I’m dealing with right now…… mines moving slightly when turning to the right aggressively. The squeaking and Popping is SOOO Annoying!!!

Here’s a link to a video of my seat….

Had the dealer look at it Twice when the truck was in their service dept for over a month combined over two visits to fix the sunroof. Then again when I noticed my awesome local dealer forgot to re install the wind deflector. They keep saying this is “a normal operating condition “ eat me! This isn’t normal or acceptable!! Opened a case with Ford…. They haven’t been much more help at this point. Can’t believe they just don’t replace the entire seat Assy !!

This the Ford authorized repair on the seat, but I did it in the driveway. Bailing wire and pliers. Kidding about the authorized part, but it's been fine for over 3 years.

That sounds like the seat bolster rubbing the plastic on the side of the seat. As the seats wear in, the bolsters compress slightly and the leather part of the bolster touches the plastic. That can be remedied by applying some flock tape at the contact point.

I just read that TSB fix.. that might be the most laughable one I have seen. Ford should be embarrassed they put that to print.
