Do your middle row seats shake?

[jeebusm3]

In our new Mazda5, I have noticed that when nobody is sitting in the middle row, the seats seem to shake quite a bit. I noticed this in my rear-view mirror. with some weight on them (even my baby in her seat), they don't.

The car rides smooth and the roads are relatively smooth that I drive on. Does anyone else notice this? I guess the reason it concerns me is it could lead to some squeeks down the line.

I've noticed the same middle seat shake. I don't know the long term affect since my 5 is new. But I believe it will not cause rattles down the line.

Mine don't do that.

So do mine (no shake)....

Mine don't do that.

really? It's mostly noticeable when looking at the headrest in the rearview mirror.

I felt better seeing someone else say theirs does it...but worse seeing someone say theirs doesn't. I figured it was an all or nothing thing.

I haven't noticed our shaking, but I would wonder if it is the mirror, rather then the seats shaking. I have the Auto-dimming mirror and don't notice vibration, but have had other cars in the past that showed varying degrees of road vibration in the rear view mirror.

I'm fairly certain I have looked back to confirm this with my own eyes.
