Creaky driver seat lumbar support on 2019 MDX A-Spec

This seems to occur when to park the vehicle outside in a hot day for a long time. It happens randomly, but it's more noticeable in the hot days

I can feel it as I accelerate or brake. When weight is on the lumbar support and then taken off, it sounds like bubble wrap.

Has anyone else had experience with this?

Sure of origin of noise? I took my car in for a squeaky driver side rear seat a couple of weeks ago. Tech took the vehicle, came back, and said it was the window shade and not the seat. Just saying.

Today i checked it again, it came from the lumbar support, i think the black lumbar support plastic isn't tight enough to hold the weight

I had the same issue on my TLX. After two dealer visits, the dealer replaced the lumber support mechanism in the seat back. Hasn't squeaked since then.

Yes!!! I'm glad someone else has experienced this too. I have a 2019 MDX a-spec and have the same problem. I will take it back to the dealership to complain as soon as i get some time to. I don't think its a weight issue because my petite wife has experienced the same issue. Probably more 'faulty design' or cheap parts.

Hello this is happening on our 2019 Tech MDX as well. Did they take care of this?

I took it back to dealership A, A doesn't want to repair it, always make some executes but doesn't take action. After three visits from A, i went to dealership B, B diagnosed the problem, said the seat frame need to be replaced. The part was ordered, probably get installed next week. I will post it later to see if it's fixed
