I believe the TSB is for the seat moving slightly laterally (side to side) just a hair when turning. But it could be related.

IF YOU CONFIRM: When tuning left or right, · The driver's seat makes a "click" noise, and/or · The driver's seat moves side to side (left or right),

ACTION: · Install special washers between the seat thigh support adjuster and the sliding and reclining device-inner and outer (see Figure 1). See this bulletin for further detail.

Yeah I have taken mine in TWICE for this TSB and they cant fix it. Look for the thread that shows how to fix it yourself using a cotter pin. I intend to do this myself.
