Any of you guys' driver's seat rub the B pillar? My passenger side seems to have enough of a gap that it doesnt rub when someone's sitting on it but the driver's side has less clearance and rubs. The squeaking noise from it is annoying. Just wondering if there's a fix for it.
 
Just seems like it's worn out from a big person sitting in it - so when it's back at the angle it rubs. Nothing much do about it unless you want to replace the seat or take the seat out change the brackets so the seat is moved over a bit.
 
The driver's seat in my 2008 rubbed on the interior B pillar from the time it was brand new. The squeaking drove me nuts for a while but I eventually learned to tune it out. My 2012 has plenty of room so no rubbing issues anymore.
 
In the service records of my car there is a note about this, it was happening to my car when it was still in warranty and infiniti ended up fixing it. I'll double check my service records and post up a picture.

Maybe its something your dealer could fix.
 
Mine does the same thing... a while ago I searched around online and found tan (I have wheat interior) colored tape that had like a fabric-type of feel to it. I figured the part that rubs would be completely hidden all the time, so if I put that tape on there, it might allow it to rub without making the noise. Only think I can think of that might fix it. Any other ideas??
