Driver's seat problem
Platinum model with quilted seats. Anyone having trouble with their front seat? The left support panel is so angular it shoots up into my thigh, causing me to lose circulation in parts of my body when I am sitting on it. I've examined and the passenger seat appears to be wider and doesn't protrude out as much. I've had the car for about a month now and the last week I've had this problem with the driver seat. If anyone has had the issue, any solutions? Tried moving the seat in all different types of positions. Thinking about getting a gel cushion but that is last resort. My head is going to be out of the sunroof. Help

Well if you have done all the seat configurations as painful as it feels you may have to break in the seat like you do a shoe and it will have to form to your leg. I know it isnt pleasant, but Nissan I am sure will not address the issue. I wish the center console wasn't so close to my right knee as well.

I don't have this problem but I did notice that the manual tgigh support doesn't stay even. I keep mine closed by the right side has a gap between the extension and the seat itself, the left most side theres no gap

I have a similar issue with my right thigh. It seems there is a hard spot on the right side of the seat. The hard spot is not on the passenger side. I tried to see if there was something left under the cushion like a block of wood but couldn't see much under the seat with all the bracing in the way. It might just be the bracing below the seat. I any case it is only on the drivers side. I will try and dig under the seat further this weekend. If I find something I will let you know.

interesting.. cannot lie, i don't love these seats. Last generation was much better for me. Hopefully I can break this in a little to be more comfortable.

I am having the same problem with the seat at the left thigh flair digging into my leg. Brought it back to the dealer one week after purchasing the car and have been told that's how it's made but the dealer will contact Nissan and inquire if this is an on going complaint. Not holding my breath, My 2014 Altima had great seats, I drove 6 hours straight with no stops and felt great.

Drove 24 hours from Northern California to West Texas and the entire trip was comfortable. My seats were great. Not sure if it's me or what, but no problems at all. Though I will admit the ride home was not as good as the first part. I didn't want to leave the kid. Not to mention the higher gas here in California.
