Seat Hurts My Butt

Jery t · 04-14-2007, 07:30 PM

Has anyone had any issues with what seems to be thin cushion on the driver power seat? I feel a sprong as well as at times believe that I feel the seat control box pushing against my butt and it has caused it to be sore. I am a big guy, but have never had this type issue. If anyone has had the problem, got any remedies? Thinking about having dealer look at it.

I had a problem with what felt like a wire running across my thigh/butt. I said something to the dealer, and they said there was nothing wrong with it. I think I have just gotten used to it. I don't have power seats, so I can't help ya with the other part. Hope you get it fixed.

I am playing with the adjustments of the seat to see if I can get a more comfortable position. Plan to visit dealer to compare against no-power seat and have service look at it.

Jery, I'll admit after 3 years and 104k of sitting in my Titan its not the most comfortable. recently I found out I have 2 herniated disks in my back and every time I get out of my truck even for a short ride I'm stiff as hell. (my back is stiff, used to be somethin else when I first got it

) I've driven my wifes altima and my brother in laws tundra and they are way more comfortable.
how long have you had your Titan?
I'd replace my captains if I could find something designed specifically for the Titan. I'd probably replace both front seats.

I agree...I am a big guy as well and the seat is not comfortable at all. I have power seats and my driver side is starting to squeak? Is anyone else's doing this?

jasonmotox · 04-19-2007, 07:22 AM

unless 200lbs is big I dont think thats the problem with the seat.
Its just a hard flat uncomfortable seat.
we should research some replacement seats.

Or you could go to a custom auto upholsterer and have them build up the seat for you with extra padding. I know guys who have done this in other vehicles and it turned out real nice!

Sounds like a pain in the a$$. Lol sorry i couldnt resist. I find the seats in the titan to be quite comfortable actually and I am 6' 215 lbs.

[quote=jasonmotox]how long have you had your Titan?
I have had it about 4 months. I have had added a beach towel folded several times for added padding. It has helped some. i have not had the chance to get to the dealer. Hope to this upcoming week. I will post what happens.

May try this if I do not have any luck at the dealer.

No not the most comfy seats I have ever sat in for sure but I don't have your problem with the wire. I have 3 hosed disk in the lumbar and 2 that are well hardly even there. It took me some time to get the right seat position but after one year and 32K miles it doesn't bother me. I do 12-15 700 mile trips a year and I had no problmes in my Titan. I am 250lbs so I am not small.

I have talked to a custom upholsterer and they told me there is nothing they can do.. The seat frame is not set up to allow more cushion. I would love to buy a new seat as well but I have not found one. The dealer told me they are all the same.. comfort for functionality, you cant have both..... BS-- My wifes Montero has seats that are way more comfortable and the truck is 4 years older than mine...
