Hi all,

At about 300 miles, I noticed that the upper fan (behind neck area) in my ventilated driver-side seat has begun making noise. It sounds like the fan blades are hitting something internal that is making it louder than it's supposed to be and/or potentially loose and rattling due to the vibration. It is also louder than the passenger side one at the same "power level". I also noticed that you can feel the fan moving around (with my back) when I put the headrest all the way down. I noticed that the headrest legs appear to interfere with the fan before it get's pushed all the way to the bottom most position.

Anyone else have this issue? My plan was to bring this up to the dealer when I went in for 5k mile service.

EDIT: I'm an idiot and didn't type "ventilated" correct for my initial search.
