Default Power seat track noise

I just bought a used 2009 Suburban and a problem I noticed is when you move the drivers power seat is moved forward or back the seat track motor is really noisy. I looked under and i could see the output plastic piece coming from the F/B motor vibrating pretty violently which is causing all of my noise. I am a mechanic so i understand how the system works and typically you have to get an entire seat track to get the motors. One exception to that was the last body style Ford expeditions where there was a tsb to fix a seat track issue. So.... instead of paying $400 for a seat track I was hoping there is a cheaper fix. Anyone have an issue like this maybe a TSB or special service message? Thanks in advance.

I have researched 2009 Suburban vehicles, but was unable to uncover any known driver seat issues. If you would like, PM me the last 8-digits of your VIN and I can check if any additional information is available.

I look forward to your reply.
