I own a 2025 Nissan Sentra SR. The driver's seat has abnormal movement and shifts/clicks while I am seated in the vehicle. The seat does not remain completely stationary and I can feel movement during normal use. After I became aware of a recall involving the driver's seat on certain 2025 Nissan Sentra vehicles, I brought my vehicle to Loyalty Nissan and specifically reported the driver's seat movement. The dealership inspected the seat and performed an adjustment/repair that I understood to involve tightening components associated with the seat. I do not know the specific components that were adjusted or tightened. Despite the dealership's inspection and attempted correction, the driver's seat continues to shift/move in the same manner. The problem has not been resolved. I subsequently confirmed that my VIN does not currently appear to be included in NHTSA Recall 25V-153 / Nissan Campaign PMA45. However, my 2025 Sentra is exhibiting abnormal driver's-seat movement similar to the condition described in that recall. I am submitting this complaint because the abnormal seat movement continues even after being inspected and adjusted by an authorized Nissan dealership, and because my VIN is not included in the existing recall population. I am concerned that vehicles outside the currently identified recall population may potentially experience similar driver-seat movement. I am requesting that this condition be documented and evaluated as a potential safety issue. I am also concerned about whether continued movement of the driver's seat could affect driver positioning or occupant protection during a collision.
