Driver seat squeaking and creaking... Help please!

So over the weekend and just past few days, I noticed that my driver seat will squeak and creak at certain times while driving the car. I'll brake abruptly and hear squeaking somewhere below the seat and other times it wont happen. Anyone have this same issue or know what could be causing it? I have nothing behind the seat or under it. Any input is appreciated, thanks

unfortunately mine does this also from time to time, as odd as it may sound I found that moving the seat all the way forward and backward as well as up and down fixes it. its almost like making it do the full articulation spreads around the grease on the adjustments that are making the noise.

Yea if I take it to the dealership, they'll just give me the run-around and the cars not under warranty anymore.. I guess I'll just have to live with it for now lol.

I experienced this issue too and fixed by adjusting the seats a little bit higher. Try it

Driver seat squeaking and creaking... Help please!

OP, squeaky seat rails or squeaky seat cushions/bladders?

My case is the seat setting too low and seems something being push down and make those noise by rubbing the surface. Try to adjust the seats a bit higher by the seats button at the door

Come to think of it, Im 99% positive that it's the seat cushions/bladders..... Because every time I move a certain way in my seat, I can hear it. The seat rails squeak a little too when I adjust the seat, that's not a big deal though.

I had squeaky bladders. Dealership opened up the seat and put felt tape here and there. Helped a little but still squeaks a bit.

I just adjusted the seat, raised it a bit, and also the front cushions too, the squeaking seems to have stopped now but we'll see if it persists...

My drivers seat is constantly squeaking now, regardless of which position it’s in. Does anyone know the cause of this?
