Seat feels like it's loose

Has anyone experienced what feels your seat is loose? The mounting bolts are tight, but if you grab hold of the top seat where the seat belt goes through it's loop, and shake the seat from side to side, it feels like the seat's loose. What appears to be happening is metal frame work under the rear of the seat looks like it's weakening.

Nope, not me.

Yep, it's one of the rattles that seem to come from just about everywhere: seats, doors, top. Ilsa and I are both getting a little long in the tooth!

I'm not sure what supplier did the seat frames and rails for the SSR's but like any other part, they wear out, and in some cases they're just a faulty product to begin with.

I have a friend who has an '09 Chevy Tahoe and the drivers seat (track) has been replaced twice.
With the very limited amount of travel that the seat is moved (his wife rarely drives his vehicle) for one, much less two to wear out so quickly has to indicate either a design or quality problem.

If you have the dealer repair your seat let us know the outcome and what we should expect should ew have the same problem.
