Default "Rocking" drivers seat

My drivers seat "rocks" sort of sideways, in an arc. Seems to do this only when the seat is in one or two of the positions that I find comfortable. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, is it something that has worn out, or something that has come loose, and can be tightened back up?

Thanks in advance!

Are the bolts on the rails tight??

Take the whole seat out and flip it over and re-create the issue.

My drivers seat better not ever move on its own.

My seat would rock forward/backward a bit. There is a bit of wear on the rails where it locks into place, but also the mechanism seems a bit sticky. Might be similar on yours, perhaps the latch just needs lubricated so it snaps into place better.
