My passenger seat sounds like it is ACTIVE in my '15 plat when I first start the vehicle. It's annoying. Although the setting for massage is OFF (I have confirmed this 6 different times) when I first start the truck, the passenger seat still vibrates for 30 seconds or so and then goes off.

Does anyone else observe this if you have massaging sets?

I don't have this going on in mine. The only hum is when I get in and the steering wheel and seat are getting into position.

I noticed a similar thing with mine, I believe that it depends on how you have the cushions adjusted if you don't have them "inflated" in the steady state you won't hear the air pump, if they are inflated (i.e. lumbar support at rest they adjust when the truck is first started.

Yeah, my guess is that you're hearing the bags inflate to whatever firmness settings you have the passenger seat set at.

^ Definitely what he said!

MNRanch & others are correct...when the passenger lumbar is set to max, the truck starts up & defaults to that setting. Just turn the lumbar down and problem should be solved.
If not...then there is a second issue.
Mine has been into the dealer twice for this. The problem/s arefaulty clamps that attach the hose to the bag. I have pics and can post them later tonight for you.

OK, thank you all for your feedback.

What caught my attention is that while both seats are maxxed out on firmness/air setting, the only one which vibrates/humms for 30 seconds or so when the truck is first started is the passenger seat. I will dial down the passenger side setting and see if this resolves the issue.

Cheers.

Unless someone adjusts the firmness after the truck is running (and before you turn it off), I wouldn't expect the lumbar to lose air just because the truck is shut off.

If it's NOT being adjusted but the bag is deflating while the truck is powered off, then I bet there is a leak.
