Backseat rattle

[ColoradoRed]

Makes me feel better lol.

Have you had a chance to look at it? I checked around a little this afternoon but everything seemed tight

No I keep forgetting. I've reached back while driving and moved that rear seatbelt and it seemed to be the culprit.

This startEd on mine yesterday! The seat latch adjustment will get checked first thing in the am. I had to adjust it few months ago and it may have slipped. Love this forum!

Hey Ringo what did you adjust

I can the next time I go out to my truck. It’s literally just a piece of black foam with 3M tape on the metal seat latch where they contact each other. You may have different rattling locations.

Mine developed a slight little noise just when I start to first move on very hot days. Once AC runs a minute it quits, seems like passenger side rear near back window/pillar speaker area. Never does it again while interior is cooled off. Have to have my kid sit in back and find it. It is minor.

Not sure if this is the sound you hear, but the unused bracket thing for the subwoofer rattles. Stuff something behind it like foam or something useful. Maybe moving blankets, tarp, etc.

Yeah I just like to see where you placed it. Seat feels secure too.

Is that behind the passenger side

Yes

My latch on the back of the truck was off center. Just centered it and tighten it up. I'll find out later if that was the problem

Hello, Ron! Send us a private message with your VIN and the name and location of your local Ford dealer. I’d be happy to see what I can do to assist. Thanks!

Not sure if you fixed the problem yet or not, but I found that the hook to keep the seat upright wasn't latching onto the hook that is bolted to the back of the cab. I added a washer to the ring the latch attaches too and solved the problem.

Anyone getting a rattle that sounds like it's coming from the rear passengers side?

Didn't get a chance yet to have someone else drive and I listen for it

I keep waiting for a utube showing an active rattle in a rear facing child seat.

Let me know how you make out. I guess the latch behind the seat back?

There was an earlier post in which it was determined (maybe even mentioned in manual) that in order to properly latch the rear seat back it should be raised and latched from the rear passenger side door. The latch is not completely closing if closed from drivers side in a gentle manner!

Can you send me a picture of it?

I don't think my fix worked.

The actual seat is very secure. I think it maybe coming from the passenger rear seatbelf
