My seat started squeaking after 800 miles thought I would be immune guess not.
Any long term fix outside of dealer replacing rails or seat? Wd40?

Spoken with several other owners on here or Reddit and the only permanent fix seems to be total frame replacement. One guy had his reinforced somehow and the issue came back. Couple others the connection points greased up, but were only temporary fixes.My seat started squeaking after 800 miles thought I would be immune guess not.

I was told they would replace the entire frame next. Apparently they only replaced one part of the seat frame the first time I got it āfixed.āSpoken with several other owners on here or Reddit and the only permanent fix seems to be total frame replacement.

In my personal journey with this, I've had the upper frame swapped so far...slightly better than before. Was going to have the lower swapped this past weekend until the dealership got a notice the morning of my appointment to send the part back...recalls are coming.
I was surprised when they only did the upper frame for mine a month ago. I never thought the upper frame was the issue to begin with. What they told me was upper frame first was just the warranty protocol...Then lower if it wasnt fixed. It'll be interesting to see exactly what the recall says whenever that officially goes out.I was told they would replace the entire frame next.

That piece was my problem too There was a warped clip on mine that was buzzing around since it couldn't fully clip in. Glad you got yours settled. You totally had it much worse than mine was lolThis piece of plastic was causing the rattle and squeaking by the glove box. Itās at the bottom left. I showed my dealer and they put some foam in there and it hasnāt rattled since.
Thanks! Yea it was brutal lol. But now the dash is frustrating. Iāll likely just sell it once I get a new vehicle.That piece was my problem too There was a warped clip on mine that was buzzing around since it couldn't fully clip in. Glad you got yours settled.

I hear ya. At a certain point you're just subconsciously keeping an eye out for noises and just kills the magic. Some trim can settle over time though so you never knowThanks! Yea it was brutal lol. But now the dash is frustrating. Iāll likely just sell it once I get a new vehicle.
