Default driver seat squeak

Latest development. Front driver seat is squeaking when I take corners, get in/out, etc. Sounds like metal on metal. Just emailed the service advisor and will report back. Don't know if I will send it in early at 12K or when I do my next oil change at 15K... more to come.

Anyone else notice any weird squeaking sounds coming from any of their front seats?

No sounds yet, I have the same car as you but only 970 miles on it so far.

I have a feeling it might be a lose seat bracket bolt into the floor. more to come after I get a hold of the dealer...

car is going in this coming wednesday and they are going to have their master technician take a listen and then take the car in for this and give me a loaner. I am working directly with the service manager at the dealership so I expect this to be a short putt.

picked up the car middle of last week. they took a brand new seat out of a luxury trim TX that was upstairs in their inventory they cannot sell due to the stop sale and put it in my vehicle. problem solved and good as new. actually better than new because now I have a brand new seat and the new car smell is back HAHA. really liking the customer service they are providing and huge shoutout to the Lexus of Watertown (MA) team and service manager who helped me through this issue.
