2022 Lexus NX driver's seat is crooked, confirmed by Lexus dealership and Lexus field rep. The left side of the seat is back further while the right side of the seat is closer to dashboard. Lexus has confirmed that the seat is properly attached and bolted to the seat rails. An identical seat from an unaffected 2022 Lexus NX was placed in my vehicle and did not fix the crooked orientation; the replacement seat sat crooked as well. The vehicle was delivered brand new to me from Lexus with this defect. This defect may affect the crash worthiness of vehicle, seat strength, and the driver's body in the event of a car crash, as well as how the seatbelt fits the driver due to crooked orientation of seat. Lexus headquarters sent this vehicle to a frame shop to dismantle vehicle and measure frame. I have been told they cannot locate what is causing the driver's seat to be crooked but have ruled out that the problem is not in the actual seat itself or the seat rails. Lexus has also told me this problem cannot be fixed. Per the photos from the frame shop that exposed the entire frame and unibody of the vehicle, the round seat mounting holes in the framing of this vehicle appear to be elongated into egg shaped slots instead of round circles. This may also compromise the vehicle and seat-€™s strength and integrity, and affect the crashworthiness of the vehicle. Sitting in this crooked driver's seat for several months has resulted in a hip injury.
