My driver's seat makes an irritating creaking noise when I lean back on it sometimes. Does anyone else have this probleM?

I don't. Where's it coming from? It should be an easy fix!

I have a noise that comes from the seatbelt clip when I go over bumps. I'm not "large" so the seatbelt clip points as much "up" as it can and it rubs against metal causing a squeek sound.

is your seat actually moving when you lean on it?

Yeah, mine would creak from time to time. Especially when cornering.

Yep, mine did and the dealer replaced the whole track...fixed, tight and quiet now. You should just be able to warranty it out.

i got that creaking too, and i found out that it was the seatbelt, so if you leave the seatbelt unfasten, no noise anymore, nice and quiet. :)

I had a creak, turned out one of the mounting bolts was not tight.

The sound in Insidious's vid is exactly the sound I'm hearing. Is that the seat belt or seat?
