Default Rattling on passenger side interior?

Hi,

Have a brand new 2019 and noticed when I go over bumps, it seems like something is loose on the passenger side as I hear rattling. Only thing I can think of is the seat belt hitting back against the chair as it doesn't seem that tight. Not really sure if its coming from the front or back but seems like it's the front.

Anyone else experience this?

Appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks

Thanks for the response. Is their anyway to secure the seat-belt or is it just something I'll have to deal with? I'll check the rings as well but I'm pretty sure it's the seat-belt.

^^^
Took me a while to define where mine was coming from BUT it was the seat belt. You can put it though the "child holder" or what I did was buy a seatbelt pad and pushed it close to the buckle clasp. That prevents it from hitting the back plastic. You can always fasten it over the buckle, but I found that was not necessary. The wife likes it when she rides in the car.

When I first got my vette last year I also had the passenger side rattle. When it was suggested to me that it was the seat belt, I thought they were crazy. Upon closer inspection that was exactly what it was. I placed the belt in the retaining loop at the top of the seat and pulled the buckle towards the front. Rattle gone!

Yeah, I just hook the passenger belt up as if someone was sitting in it. Fixes the issue.
