Default Is this normal?

Got home form work today and was cleaning up my CX-5 Touring. After cleaning the exterior, I opened the hood and checked the oil and added some windshield wiper fluid.

While looking around the engine compartment(still new to me, had it less than 2 weeks) I notice that I can move the radiator assembly slightly front to back by about 1/4 inch. When I say assembly the a/c condenser(evaporator which ever is at the radiator),the radiator and 2 electric fans all mounted together can be moved slightly with little pressure.

Normal or...?

Mine's the same way. My guess is the radiator assembly is shock mounted using a peg and grommet mounting system. Pretty common.
