Ford needs to redesign the seats

[Houseof7th]

Ford needs to step up their game with comfort. For the past 2 weeks I have driven 4 different cars a Subaru BMW Toyota And Volvo (it's a work thing) All of which are way more comfortable than the Broncos sport badlands I have. My sport can compete with them any day of the week now so don't get it twisted I'm just saying Ford can do better with the seats. I hope next year you hear our cries and make the seats more comfortable. Let's allow the backseat to recline (Imagine that) The powers there the look is there but the comfort not so much. Get it together Ford.

I giggled at this because my experience has been so different! I have an issue with my sciatic nerve and this vehicle is the only one that doesn't kill me after 10 mins. I hope they don't change a thing! (But I won't be getting another hopefully for about 5 years).

What is it exactly you like and dont like - i prefer the bs seats over previous (2016 forester) and current vehicles (2018 f150 & 2015 fiesta).. - i run/ manage a mattress company factory - and comfort is a super tricky area to pin down.

I don't have a issue with the seats , I think they are fine . I would say my Super Duty's are more comfortable , but the stiff on it suspension gives you a work out . The BS is much much more comfortable .

It might fit me better since I'm short! ? Only 5'3" here and the lumbar area is just the perfect amount of support. Other than the ergonomic seats in the kia soul (best seats out there imo), these are the perfect fit for me. Drove a Fit, rogue etc and all hurt after a bit.

Never met a Toy with anything but uncomfortable seats, owned four. I bought Toyota’s anyways because I needed small trucks that would go well past a quarter million miles, they all did with one making 528,000 miles.
Subaru’s as a package all were so outdated IMO but the seats were fine had one, never wanted another if that tells you anything.
My Bronco Sport Seats are the best I ever had including my various F series Ford trucks.
5’11” 160 pounds. I will say I was always less comfortable sitting in any car seat when I was 202 pounds…..,,,

I'm going to half agree. Last week 2000 miles in 3 days in BL with cloth seats - driver power, passenger manual. Drivers seat was fine, passenger seat not with switching between drivers/seats every 2-3 hours. I think difference is power seat motion involves a slight tilt to raise front up to legs, passenger being manual is straight back and forth with less leg support. I am 5'10" 160#. Anyone with back issues will recognize hip position has a big impact on seat comfort. If it had been offered I would have ordered power cloth passenger seat.

I don't have power but have a manual tilt for driving. Only my corgi is in the passenger seat and he hasn't complained yet. Since we have a mattress expert here, maybe my love for the BS seats is also because I like the firmest of firm mattresses. Still, I think seats, like mattresses, are representative of the whole Goldilocks thing. You will never make everyone happy.

I want ford redesign the backseat to recline my passengers will be so much more comfortable. Ford wants to compete with all the other companies they better get with the program with this comfort. Make every seat power seating. I was in a BMW X7 the other day everything is power one touch. I folded the second and third roll with the click of a button. While we're here let's add power lifted tailgate. Ford stop acting like you don't got it($$$) stop being cheap!

Agree. The ability to slightly recline would be huge for road trips.

The seats are fine for me, but I do wish the seat bottoms were about two inches longer for a tad more leg support. I love the lumbar support thingy.

 

[JEspey]

The cloth seats in my BL are much more comfortable than the leather seats in the OB we test drove. We would not have purchased the BS if not for the cloth seats.

Side bolsters on the OB leather seats could be a little tougher, but other than that, very comfy.
