rattling passenger seat

did anyone have any issue with their front passenger seat. my car is new and the seat is rattling. If I hold the seat while driving the rattle goes away. I think it just needs to be tightened up a bit. The seat seems to jiggle a bit while driving.

I had to have the drivers seat track replaced. The seatrocked back and forth. Maybe you have the same issue with the pass. seat.

Sorry to hear you're having a 'rattle' problem... but secretly glad that, for once, it's not my car!

it is a vibration

you know what. It is a vibration. The seat is taking the vibration from the car and causing a small rattle in the seat because it is vibrating so much. I am taking it in tomorrow for them too look at it. If I put my hand on the seat back while I am driving, to stop the vibration, the rattle doesn't occur. It isn't major or anything, just a little annoying.

I had the car looked at, and they said the track needs replaced. They ordered the part. The funny thing is after they diagnosed the problem, the problem seems to have gone away. I presume they tightened everything up. I am going to watch it for a few days. I don't want them taking the seat out if they don't have to..
