I have noticed my backseat seem weird. I am not sure if this is normal or not. Can someone show me their backseat for reference please?
Seem my padded part wiggles a bit, but everything is properly connected. Bolts are nice and tight in the front. Just seems like the whole padded part should be flush and it is not, it is a bit raised up. I don't know how or what happened to it since nobody ever goes in the back. I noticed it when I put the seats down for more cargo room.

Here are a few pics maybe you can see what I am talkin' bout! Thanks for your help!

Yea I was thinking the same thing when I pulled my rear seat out to clean. I think it's supposed to be like that.

I totally disagree! Ford purposely designed the rear seats so the owner of the car would not be harassed to give friends car rides. As soon as your friends have had to sit in the back seat once they will never ask for a ride again unless they get the front seat (was the best thing going through highschool). At-least i hope that's what ford's intentions were...

In a coupe yes. In a vert you can sit sideways and put your arms up on the sides like you're sitting in a hot tub. My friends love it back there as long as there's only one back there we're not on a highway. Then it turns into a wind tunnel.

That I disagree with as well. Seemed that until I pulled out my seat that somehow there was always somehow a random 3rd/4th person that was thrown into my car somehow. Yes, please complain to me that there is no room back there as I can hardly shift and I OWN the vehicle biatch..
