Seat creak
I had the seabelt squeak at aroung 2000 miles. That was easily fixed with WD-40. Now, 5000 miles later the back driver seat makes a creaking sound with any rocking type movement. I just checked out the FAQ section. Took off the back panel and inspected all the visible hooks,foam and vertical metal bar. It doesn't sound like the hooks or foam rubbing. The creaking tone is lower, so I'm thinking it may be some type of bracket. Anyone else had this? It sounds like it's coming from the lower left area. There are some bolts to the left. Maybe they need tightening. I could be wrong though, the sound kinda travels up and down the steel frame of the seat. I'll try again this weekend. Hopefully I won't have to take in to the dealer

I had this before.
When I had my oil change, I told the dealer to fix it.
In 30 minutes, the squeaks were fixed. They demounted the back panel of each seat and lubrificated them. They also fix the seatbelt receivers.
Let the dealer do this, it is easier, unless you want to explore your car.
They don't put WD-40, they put something especially for the seats. So, there is no bad odor....

I have the same problem. Took to a dealer, they will replace the back of driver's seat. They said you can fix it, but once you do it's hard to get it all back together and make it as sturdy as a new seat.
