Seat sqeak!? Is this covered under warranty?

I maby be too **** about this but it's driving me absolutly bonkers. When I go to sit down in my seat and lean back into the backing it makes a damn squeaking noise. It's right at the upper right side of the lumbar part... This is on an 03' rex btw... Just wondering if this is covered...

OR when I push my hand into the seat it also squeaks...
Anyone else have this issue...

Thanks :-)

i have the same problem on my 02 WRX, when ever i lean or push back into my seat it squeeks, I also had my chair rails replaced under warranty because they squeeked when i accelerated. my glove box had noises too and the dealer installed weather striping on the inside of the part that swings down. so far so good...

I've NEVER had warrranty work done on my car... How does this work? Do I call the dealer and say I would like warranty work done. Do I have to pay for their labor? I also want them to look at my shifter because 3rd gear feels "notchy" when going into it... not too smooth...

Thanks :-)

i believe you just take it into the dealer and tell them the problem and they'll determine if it is covered. If it is then you have nothing to worry bout. You shouldnt have to say you need this done under warrenty they should know.

Just bring it by the service dept. (usually a good idea to call ahead and set up a time) and ask them to take a look.

LOL i am not retarded! i hear squeeks from my glove compartment. it might sound funny getting a warranty replacement for a squeeky seat unless the track is defective or the seat hinges aren't working right.
