Hi all, 

I just recently purchased a 2023 fiesta ST line (had 4 previously) and I’ve noticed the driver seat is really uncomfortable and I can feel the support bar underneath the seat, oddly enough, the comfort level on the passenger seats is much better - had anyone else noticed this or had issues?

    There is no 2024 Fiesta. It was discontinued in the first half of 2023. 
     

    Report it to your supplying dealer. Maybe there is a problem with the seat and they can change it under warranty.

    There is a great quote from Sir Frank Williams to Alan Jones, who had complained that his seat in the FW07 (IIRC) was uncomfortable, to which Frank replied, "...well, sit on your wallet."

    Sounds like a fault if the passenger seat is ok. I had an earlier (2018) ST- L and didn't notice any comfort difference in the later model seats when trying them. Several members on here have facelift Mk 8.5 ST-Ls and I don't recall anyone else mentioning it. 

    PS you still need to alter your Ford year - it's not 2024 yet!😀
