Default 2018 Sport seats painfully uncomfortable

Just got a used CX5 and love it but may have to sell it back. The seats are unbelievably uncomfortable. I can't drive for more than 10-15 minutes without getting pain and tingling in my leg. Was there a recall or something? Any advice? I really can't keep this car in this condition.

Unfortunately no advice on this one. I feel your pain (literally) but in my case it is not so bad that I would sell the car. Some forum members suggested to take it to an upholstery shop to alter the hard side bolsters.

The money lost by selling it would go a long way towards a custom upholstery solution.

a hokey solution, but I was looking at this...so I could still have some benefit of the seat coolers. I have not pulled the trigger yet due to very little driving...plus it is my wife's car, and she is not complaining.
