thanks mate, do you think you can resolve the problem just with locking washers? or do you need the bar aswell ?

I have the same issue with my base w/sport package. Had the car 2 week so far and 800 miles. Funny thing, I also have a 2005 Murano and have the same issue.

300 Miles in on my Base M/T and yup there it is. My 03' 350 had this problem. Not that big of deal, but as with the 350 I will take her in and get it fixed.

Just weird that (according to thread) The Maxima, Murano etc. are having the same issue. Seems like it should be a easy fix.

Someone posted a fix for it.

Just grab the seat cushion above the forward and backward lever, rock it up and down and sideway and see if it clicks

Just to add to the list, I have a Base w/sport. 350 miles on the car and I also have the "click" in the seat frame.

Going in for my "we owe you" on my Kickplates on Saturday morning. I told my sales person about the "click" and he said it would be addressed. We will see.

My dealer replaced "the whole frame" and while it seemed to be fine, after a week or so, it's back.....so no joy. Service Mgr is calling Nissan and is supposed to get back with me.

On the DIY fix, has anyone confirmed if just the lock washers outlined in "seat fix" works or do you also need that flat bar?

Same problem here. I've had movement since the first week of ownership. I started my own thread (Anyone with driver's seat movement?) today but then later discovered that this thread already existed.

I too have the base + sport package.

I got the track replaced by the dealership last week. Initially, they seemed to have fixed it but it returned and has progressively gotten worse. EEEeeerrrrrrr.

And what's up with some of the posts I've been reading.......the dealership techs saying that "this is normal"??? Get the fcuk out of here....BS.

Same problem on my base 370Z. The local Nissan dealership added my 370Z to the list. I'll either wait for the TSB or try the "Mightybobo fix".

I've got 450 miles on my Base+Sport and just started getting the movement on left hand turns only. Going to the dealership Monday. Anyone have any luck with the dealer finding the exact fix so I can point them in the right direction?

My dealership in Southern California [allegedly] has not heard of this issue. I did however attend a "study" at a Nissan marketing/Research center where I mentiond this issue; they had had some awareness of the issue and one of the managers told me that he'd get back to me - I have yet not heard from him.

I have 3500 miles on my car now and the issue seems to more annoying by the miles... maybe cuz I'm aware of it and haven't taken action. I'd be interested to see if the dealership you visit would have a solution.
