2011 F150 Vibration Question

Just purchased a new 2011 F150 2wd XLT SCREW Ecoboost. Had 50 miles on it, currently has 1500. When empty, the passenger seat vibrates. You can see it when you hit a bump and its constant at highway speeds. If you "punch" the seat, it shakes noticeably worse than the driver's seat. This is my first new truck, so I don't really have a baseline to know if its normal or not. I don't feel any excessive vibration in the steering wheel or in my seat, but at the same time, if the seat is shaking constantly on the highway, it has to be rotational vibration. Just wondering if anyone had any thoughts before I try the dealer.

There are several members that have had the same issue. I can't recall why theirs did it but mine doesn't do it. I thought I recall it being higher trim pkgs but that may not be accurate, try searching and see what you come up with. You should be able to find some info about it here somewhere. Good luck

I moved the seat forward a couple positions and it moves a lot less, but 75+ it still dances around.

I would contact your dealer and see what they have to say. There might even be a TSB on this, maybe someone who has had this issue will jump in here
