Second row seats in 7-seat model Y seem not aligned

[fiveten]

I have a 7 seat model Y, and it looks like the seat behind the front passenger is higher than the middle seat and the seat behind the driver in the second row. Attached is a pic.

Can a 7-seat owner confirm if there seat backs are all flush across the second row?

Mine are the same way. I have a mobile appointment in a week to replace a seat bottom. I’ll ask them about it while they are here. I’d be curious if the 5 does the same thing

Is the seat bottom the 3rd row seat behind the driver? I had all sorts of permanent intentions in the seat bottom for that seat.

I messaged Tesla and here is the response I got:

No my issue with the seat bottom is in the second row passenger side. It’s loose. They are replacing the pan

I’m not too worried about it. Pro tip for preventing indentation from seatbelt do this. You’re going to get some no matter what but this helps

bump.. does anyone have a second row that is flat? mine are not either.

Tesla just told me they won’t fix it and it is within spec…and they also said they can’t fix it, but they is contrary to what they told me earlier…bleh

FWIW, my second row seems to be similar to that of the OP. It's not flat, but not as mis-matched as yours and that of zikronix. (Sorry about the bad focus in my quick snap, but you get the idea.)

The misalignment of the 2nd row passenger seat with the 2nd row center and driver side passenger seat is common on 5 seat Model Y too. My 2020 LRMY VIN 10XXX has this too. I've learned to live with it.

Thanks, jcanoe. I was wondering about that exact issue, i.e., is there something about the mechanism of the middle row in the 7-seat, or is it also in the 5-seat? Now we know.

I have to admit that I did not notice my slight misalignment until I saw this thread, so I guess I can count myself lucky.

Happened to me too… they came and fixed it- said a clip came off.
