Squeaky Passenger Seat

My front passenger seat makes a ton of noise when someone is in it and we hit any bumps.

Common? Rare? Fixes?

I'm going to take it to the dealer in a few days, but am curious if anyone else has encountered a similar issue.

Thanks.

It's pretty common. Mine Squeeks with as little as a pizza box on it. Do a search there are a few threads on it. I believe taking it to the dealer will result in it being fixed.

I also have a constantly relocking front seat. Every 15-20 min one side will slide and lock like it wasn't before.

I just had my seat fixed for the same problem. The dealer had my riot there all day for for diagnostic. The told me that the squeek was coming from the seat belt reciever. The dealer ordered the part and two weeks later it was replaced, squeek is now gone!! So you guys might want to see if thats your problem too. Hope this helps!!!

My '09 passenger seat squeaks when occupied as well. Perhaps I can eliminate the "all day" diagnostic and just get them to order the part. Good info, thanks. Cheers.

If you have the fold down front passenger seat, the seat belt receiver will scratch against a bolt on the side of the seat only when it is occupied. My youngest daughter isolated the problem for me after months of me trying to do so.
