2022 Explorer Timberline
Not sure if this is just me being picky or not, but I just can't get comfortable in the driver's seat. The day I bought my Timberline I had a 8 hour drive home with it, and from the moment I sat in the seat something just didn't feel quite right. Something in the back seems to poke into my back at the bottom rib on my left side. It's as if the side bolster padding/foam is cut short or folded under making a hard spot.

I sit in the passenger seat just fine and it feels ok. I asked my brother to sit in it to see what he thought and he just told me "lose weight fatty" 🤣. He's skinny enough though that his entire torso fits between the bolsters without touching them.

The photo is me pointing to where it feels like the foam ends and drops off to the level of the gray back of the seat.

That seemsa little high to have anything to do with the Lumbar Support but have you tried adjusting that, if you have it?
Otherwise, I would have the dealer check it out.

No, it's not the lumbar. The "gap" I feel in the bolster runs up the entire side from the lumbar area to the shoulder area.
