Anyone over 80 lbs sitting in the passenger seat often causes a squeak while going down the road. Has anyone else had this problem and discovered the cause and the fix? I'm reluctant to take the seat apart and just start looking around. Maybe someone more gifted than me has already figured this out. My assumption is the springs.

I have started to have this same issue. My passenger seat now does it when I'm on highway curves as well.
Have you figured anything out?

There are a couple of threads here at the bottom they may or may not help with these issues.

I'm behind the rest of the world, but just recently became familiar with using AI to troubleshoot car problems. I tried to attack this problem with ChatGPT, but only got lead astray after assumptions of frame rail issues. I feel positive its a problem with the springs. I'm still reluctant to remove the seat and fumble around myself. I will say, I can fix almost anything as long as someone else figures it out first and tells me how to do it ;) I find it hard to believe nobody else in Maverick world has had this same problem and not figured it out already.
