Anyone had seat squeak fixed under warranty?

y driver seat is getting squeaky. Sounds like the springs that support the foam on the seat bottom. Has anyone had it covered by the bumper to bumper warranty?

 

It was odd that question was asked on a Toyota survey about my Tacoma, do the seats squeak. My seat doesn't squeak after 69K miles but when I move the seat belt lower arm piece, that squeaks some. I was asked about the inside material too and whether it scratched easily or not. Seems the were just getting verification on known problems to me.

 

I only have 20,000 miles. Its definatley in the seat bottom cushion area. If I wiggle my bum on the seat is really squeaks

 

There is a TSB out for it but you can do it yourself in under an hour. I did a write up on how to do it and 1 year later the squeak has never come back. This defintely fixed it for me!

Here's the TSB.

 

My 2011 is starting to do it and I have less than 9k miles on it.

 

mine is definitely not the seat track, its the actual seat cushion in the back rest. when i lean back it squeaks, i have the seats with a dial on the bottom left to pump up the back rest or make it softer... would my warranty cover this?

 

The TSB says that this applies to 2004-2010 vehicles. I have a 2012 where the shotgun seat squeaks like crazy. I cannot tell exactly where the squeak is coming from, but if I reach over and put pressure on the seat (either pushing it away or pulling it towards me) the squeak stops.

Does anyone know if my 2012 have these same locator pins? Thanks.

My 2012 Trd sport does the same, not fixed yet. I often have to adjust the knob to make the squeaks go away.

 

What knob?

 

Lumbar support adjustment most likely

 

do you have to be under warrenty to use the TSB i have a 07 and it just stared like 5k ago and it drives me nuts

 

Husker must have drivers side squeak; mine is passenger side.

 

Missed that

 

I had the dealer fix it, I have the katskin leather and they said it was a spring rubbing.
