Condition
Some customers may comment about a scraping or moaning type noise coming from the front of the front seat track area. This condition occurs when the
seat assembly is being cycled into the full forward position. Some customers may also comment about a creaking noise coming from the driver's six-way
power seat when it is in the full rearward position. This condition only applies to six-way power seats.
Cause
This scraping or moaning condition may be caused by the seat position sensor (SPS) making contact with seat position sensor target bracket. This contact
is made in the lead in area of the SPS. This contact area controls the function of the SPS. The driver's seat creaking condition may be caused by the lack
of lubricant in the rear of the driver's seat track assembly.
Correction
The application of a lubricant to the contact area of the components will eliminate the noise. Use the following steps to apply lubricant to the seat
position sensor target bracket, located on the inner seat track and to the rear of the driver's seat tracks.
1. Move the seat assembly to the rearmost position.
2. Locate the seat position sensor target bracket on the seat inboard track.Passenger Seat Position Sensor Target Bracket Location
