I purchased a new 2008 Nissan Altima in March 2008 and shortly after the seat started to squirm from side to side in turns. I took it to the dealer and they acknowledged the problem. They replaced the seat rails which fixed the problem. Approximately 1 month later the seat started the same behavior when cornering. I took it back to dealer and they said there was nothing that could be done. My seat is now becoming more and more loose. There are numerous others with the same vehicle and problem. Refer to this site: www.nissanclub.com/forums/new-2007-2008-Nissan-Altima-discussion/268078-does-your-driver-seat-squirm.html approximately 71 percent of 216 customers polled report the same problem. It is possible the other customers do not have power seats as I. the problem seems to be in the power seat assembly.
