It seems like the seat cushion on my drivers seat is collapsing inboard so while driving it I feel like I'm going to slide off and end up on the engine cover.
Anyone else experienced this and have any suggestions for repair or replacement of the seat cushion?

Ha, yeah! But since I just bought this RV I'll blame the seat on my PO. ;)

This might be a good excuse to pick up a pair of Honda type seats. It would probably be less expensive in the long run, leather is the most popular but cloth is available also.

My original driver seat did the same thing. In fact all of the foam in my coach has more or less deteriorated even though the uphostery is in great shape. My friend replaced all the foam in all of his furniture and it's amazing in that they all look like new. It wasn't a bad job at all. In my case I put in the Chrysler/Honda front buckets.

If it is not obviously collapsed, your seat may not be level. I have found three different GMC ones that way on the right side. To fix this I simply loosen the bolts and insert about 6 or 8 flat washers on the right side. If the foam is really collapsed then ignore this posting.
