I had this problem on my '03 and the dealer eventually fixed it by
replacing the seat track. I had to be persistent, but they finally
sorted it out.

kirk,

If the power seat mechanism was a tight as you think it should be. The
electric motors would have to be as big as starter motors to get the job
done.

If a little play in the seat track is such a life altering problem, you're
a lucky man.

Kirk,

don't listen to those he think it's nothing. What you describe is one of
the most annoying little things you can experience in a car just because it
is such a tiny thing and you can't get anyone to fix it.
