Default Passenger Squeak
When I'm cruising around at 40+ mph my passenger seat starts to make a annoying squeak like it is coming from inside of it possibly a spring or something i know this happens alot but what do you recommend doing?

Or could it be coming from a totally different place?

Any help would be appreciated.

Make sure the seatbelt bracket on the passenger seat is tight, lots of squeaking comes from there.

I'll say that it is not the passenger seat but the passenger side rear seat where it latches in the upright position. Check that. Or check the spare donut tire compartment.

I found that my squeeks were from the springs underneath the seat(The ones used for ajusting the seat)were rubing agaist the seat frame(metal to metal). I installed heat shrink over the springs as a temporary fix and the problem has not come back yet.
