Seat backs are leaning. How to fix?

My seat backs are both closer to the dash on the door side and farther away towards the center console. I lean because my back is twisted to the right. Opposite on the passenger side. My butt sits flat, but not the rest of me.

Birds eye view. \ /

They're not that bad but you get the idea. Is there a way to adjust them? Or mod them so they'll be straight? Is this just normal wear on the seat? Wasup wit dat?

Thanks in advance

Sounds like the frame support in the seat is bent.I had this problem in my Riviera and I just twisted the seat frame by hand in the opposite direction.
Hope this helps.

I tried that, but was affraid to get to pushy with it. Didn't want anything to snap. They just seem like they're resting on the stop a little farther back on the counsel side. I have put up with it for a while, but on longer rides, it gets too me. Starts straining my back.

Thanks
AJ
