    I have a 2020 Platinum and the slightest bump makes a noise from the vibration of the passenger seat. It’s driving me crazy because I can always hear it when no one is sitting in it. It’s almost as if I had a bunch of stuff in the back pocket but that’s not what it is. If I bang on the side of the seat I can sort of duplicate it but not totally. Any ideas on what it could be or a fix

    Did you check if the seat bolts are tight?

    I checked the fronts, not the backs, I didn’t want to break those clips but I will try that too. I just didn’t know if anyone else experienced it. If I move the seat in different positions it seems to go away but once someone gets in the truck and puts the seat in a comfortable position I notice it when they get out

    Heated/cooled seats? Might be a loose fan?

    It is the sound of the seat back and the seat bottom rubbing on each other.

    try adjusting the seat back a smidge back to add some space.

    this happened on my old limited and fixed the issue.
