Back seat upright rattle


Recommended Posts

I have a 2017 Edge Titanium. I have an annoying rattle in the upright of the rear driver side seat. Sometimes it seems like it is more prevalent if it is cold but not all the time. I have talked about taking it to the dealer but it doesn't happen all the time. If I hit bumps sometimes it seems to start it when I wasn't hearing it before hitting the bumps. One reason that I haven't taken it to the dealer is that if it happens to not be rattling that time then they can't possibly fix it. If it ain't broke then you can't fix it.

I sounds to me like a little thing on a wire that rattles so bad that it sounds like a motor running even on fairly smooth road once it gets started.

Is there a way to open up the back side of the upright so that I can see without tearing up the covering of the back of the seat?

Mine has a black covering that is similar to the cargo area. It seems like it has a hard backing that is covered with this fuzzy fabric. Does anyone know how it is attached and how to get it off without making a mess of the seat upright?

 

I bought the car new so I am pretty sure it is not caused by something a previous owner did.

 

Thanks for any advice.
