stock MR seats creaking

i dunno if it's been happening all along or i just started noticing it. but when i sit in the seats (both driver and passenger) and rock to the left or right in the slightest way, the seats creak...how do i fix this? it's getting annoying. especially if i want to take an aggressive corner, the seats squeak like a rusty door. 2008 MR, 17K KM.

i've been to the dealer so many times lol. I was there maybe 4 times for the door issue, then a paint issue, then an oil change, then i ran over a muffler and needed front splash shiled replacement. people there must think i'm crazy. i've been to that dealer probably a dozen times in a year. this is going to be 13

Mine are doing it in my gsr also. I'm a fatty though. It's probably my seat crying for relief.

My seat creaks on my GSR. My IX did the same thing. I think it just needs to have some of the mounting bolts tightened. Going to ask the dealer next time I have it in for service. Not annoying enough to make a special trip.
