Back seat rattle issue

[MoeFei]

We have had people in the back seat of our 2024 CX5 for the first time. We have noticed a rattle on one of the seats, when on a rough road and also when you push and pull the upper part of the seat. It is coming from the back cushion latch where on the car frame is a square frame that looks like for a door, Is there a way to tighten this just like you sometimes have to do on a car. The square comes through a slot in the panelling. Would such an adjustment be covered under the warranty? Thanks.

I had a similar issue on my 2023 CX-5. The rattling sound turned out to be from the seat latch area as well. I used some felt tape around the contact points where the seat meets the frame, and that reduced the noise significantly. You might want to try that as a quick fix. But I agree—if it's a design flaw or something loose from the factory, it should definitely be checked under warranty. Keep us posted if you get a dealership response!
