Squeaky seat

Wondering if anyone has had problems with the drivers seat squeaking on bumps etc. The dealer was supposed to fix mine, but didn't. I will be taking it back in...it really annoys me.

Mine had a squeak very soon after I got my car in August and kept getting worse and worse. It was getting so annoying that I was really starting to get angry. About a month after owning my car I took it in.

Since then, it's been nice and quiet.

There is a TSB on it.

Mine are cloth and never have squeaked. Maybe it's something your leather is rubbing on.

After a hundred years of building cars, you'd think carmakers would have perfected something as simple as a seat. But seat problems (noises, loose mounting) seem to be really common these days and not just with GM. I think the suppliers are cutting back on seat quality and strength.

I have the same problem. I'm assuming you have the seat all the way back. Just move the seat forward about 1/8" and the sqweak will disappear.

There is at least one thread on the seat belt squeaking, the TSB said to add some grease/wd40 and it fixed the problem.

As someone stated earlier there is a TSB on it. Mine was doing the same thing about a year ago. I took it in and they fixed it.
