yeah, that does not sound normal. I would definitely take it to the dealer if I were you.

I noticed on mine that it shakes/rattles when I go over bumps like a drain on the highway... Plan on bringing it up at the 5k service... (i still haven't hit 3,000 miles )

I've noticed it shaking also. I don't look at the seat so it doesn't bother me.

Lol yep I have noticed it I thought it was normal cause I hadn't seen any post anything on it. I will wait to see what happens when someone gets it resolved.

There's a bit of a rattle from the passenger headrest but I don't notice any shaking like crazy.

Maybe try tightening the seat rails and see if problem occurs, it only take less then 5 minuts. If it still does take it to the dealer.

It depends on the position of the seat. Mine shakes some if the seat is more upright, but thats been the case on many cars I've owned.

I hear an occasional rattle from mine over bumps but I've never noticed it shaking. Almost 12,000 miles on her now.

Both of my driver and passenger headrests shake as well. I tried to put my head closer to the headrest, my head shakeed like a crazy woman too (it was on a highway).
