Default Driver side front seat loose

I have noticed for the past few months that my driver side backing is slightly loose. I am not talking about the part that has the net, I am talking about the part that supports your back. Every time I get into it, the backing seems to move backwards and when I press the brakes hard, the backing of course, moves forward. I checked all five bolts today on the floor, but this only helped very, very minor. If you grab the front part of the seat where your legs go, you can actually move the seat back and forth. I know I cant be the only one that has experienced this problem. I have taking these seats apart many times, but don't recall any screws or bolts that were loose. If there are, and I overlooked them, which are they? All the functions, including heated seats work flawless, no noise or anything, but I don't think any of the wiring or mechanical will contribute to this problem. Before I take the seat out, I wanted to ask you all's opinion.

Any help is appreciated. Tonight would be a good opportunity for me to check in to this.

Thanks

Mark

You need to see if the worm itself is loose. Try looking at the worm drive and see if it moves when you shake the seat and get it moving.

Is this on the side that actually pivots forward or backwards, covered by the side trim piece of the seat? Not exactly sure here.
