Use one of the TWO "anti-rattle/squeak" devices that are found on our cars.

The first one is located on the left side of the steering wheel.
Press the “UP” arrow.

The other is located on the dash directly in front of the shift knob
Rotate it Clockwise.

Either of these two devices should solve your problem.

From my experience the reasont for the "crickets" in the passenger seat are from when the back of the seat is moved from left to right (not front to back). This should cause the seat to rattle. The noise I believe comes from down near the "hinge" areas on the left and or right side of the seat where the back meets the bottom of the seat. I don't know how to fix it yet only replicate the rattle in my car....I'll try the dealer next time I go.
