Default Squeaking Driver Seat

I don't know if anyone has had this problem, but my driver seat was squeaking and creaking like crazy as I was driving. I brought it to the dealer and the seat frame was bad. They repaced the frame under warranty and the sound is gone.

Your "search for noises" is understandable. Your JK is still new, under warranty, and your perfect baby. The sooner you give in to the noises/rattles and the dark side, much improved you will be.
