My "seat" pops and makes strange noises as well... Though it's usually after I have eaten too much etc....
Seriously though, I have an 04 as well and so far no strange noises from the seats. I wonder if you have a worn out seat track or worm screw (adjuster etc.). Do your power seat functions get used often - as in multiple drivers etc.?
My guess is something is worn or bad within the seat track/frame mount. They will probably remove the seat and just replace the frame/effected track area. Not the entire seat.
Good luck
