Hi all. I'm sorry if this post sounds silly, but the squeaking sound
in my front driver seat is driving me bananas! Somewhere in the seat
if I move (especially when cornering and my body leans either left or
right with the turn), the seat squeaks -- more like a creaking sound.
You know the sound of a door opening slowly with rusty hinges? That
would be my seat. Anyone have any suggestions on how to permanently
get rid of this creaking noise? PLEASE HELP! It's driving me
bananas. My ride is a 2006 Wrangler 6-speed tranny. THANKS

I had the exact same problem on the same vehicle from the first day I bought
it. It drove me nuts. I solved it by spraying some WD40 at the back mounts
of the seat rail (seat to body mounts, bellow the plastic cover).
Yours may be squeaking at a different location. Try to locate the exact spot
that originates the squeak by having someone move on the seat to make it
squeak while you are listening around the seat. Then spray some penetrating
oil to it.

Being a 2006, I would make the dealership fix it under warranty.
