Tremor Seats

[lb7047]

Anyone else find the 2023 seats uncomfortable? I just purchased a 2023 white F150 Tremor with 5.0 402 a, it has 800 miles on it so far. The seat is pushing on a nerve on my upper left shoulder and makes it almost impossible to drive it over an hour. I posted a pic where I think the pressure is common from, its the seam right below the Tremor logo.Anyone less noticing this?

That’s unfortunate that your having that experience, perhaps try changing the seating position some so it doesn’t hit the nerve in your back? I have the same 402A seats and drove 19 hours from Granger Ford to South Carolina and experienced no aches or pains, extremely comfortable seats to me.

I tried every position I could. I have to figure out something, I love the truck. I traded in a 2022 Chevy high country for it. I didn't like the chevy but the seats was comfortable for my back

I have had the opposite experience, my brother has a 19 Silverado and I find the Tremor seats significantly more comfortable.

That sucks though, I haven't heard much as far as comfort complaints, but I'm sure there are others out there. I would imagine what is extremely comfortable for some, can miserable to others. Hopefully you can find some fix.

How tall are you? It mY just have something to do with where you are on the seat compared to others. Just guessing here though.

Im 6ft 1 and weigh 170 pounds. I ordered some seat cushions to see if that helps

Same measurements as you with no issues or hard spots where you're pointing. Feel the same pain in your passenger seat?

Try adjusting the lumbar if you haven't already. I find supporting the lower back very helpful.

I tried that also, it does help my lower back pain. It sucks getting old

I have had no issues with mine as of yet, I find the seats quite comfortable actually.

I really like these seats. Much more comfortable that my 12' FX4 seats.

Sorry to hear you are finding these seats to be uncomfortable for you. Personally I find these seats to be quite comfortable. No better or worse than my '18 Lariat really. Don't notice them one way or the other as being super comfortable or very uncomfortable haha. The longest drive I've taken so far though has only been around an hour though so maybe something would pop up on longer trips. Hope not.

I love the seats in my 402A. super comfortable and way better than my 2019 expedition platinum.

The best way to manage and improve back pain is going to the gym and maybe lifting some heavy things will stop your whining. Seriously though, hope it you figure out the problem and are able to find a comfortable solution.

WELL, I'm in the camp with you on the seat issues only mine is a different one. The 'bucket' style of seat is uncomfortable for my left leg. AND, I feel like I'm rolling off the seat to the left when I'm turning the truck to the right. It's the strangest thing, it's like the seat is tilted to the left to some degree or the seat support on the left side is sprung or something. I LOVE this truck but my 2.5 hour travel times get the best of my left leg and given me sciatica issues. I'm 6'3 and 230. I have a 2016 F150 Platinum and those seats are great. I've even gone to the dealer and sat in other tremors to see if this is unique to mine. It's hard to tell in a test drive or just a sit in...it may cause me to trade it in tbh.

I've given thought to trading mine in too. 11000 miles on a 23 model. Also 6'1 and 175. I find the seats very uncomfortable after even a short, 30 or so minute drive. I have to take a couple Alleve in advance of any longer drives. Just yesterday I drove about 6 hours and was not feeling great when I was done. Had a 14 Ram and could drive all day without any problems.

I find these sorts of responses interesting. I have taken multiple 2.5+ hour trips on the truck with no issues. I am 5'11" at 185 lbs hitting the gym five days a week for many years at this point. Perhaps you or others have health issues, i.e. back problems, sciatica, poor posture, etc. that may be impacting your experience?

Probably! But that's life as you get older =) You have to find a chair that works and then you stick with it.
