It happens, not often but it does happen

Next time that you take it in for service, just mention it
it may just need a bit of Mopar lube or a slight adjustment, or both

I had the same problem. Here's what the dealer did:

They loosened the bolts on the seat, then they had another person sit in the seat (for applied pressure) as they re-torqued the bolts. Squeak gone. BTW: The dealership told me a plastic gum wrapper was stuck between the seat bracket and floor/rug. Hmmm...really? They said the wrapper caused the squeak. Really? I was able to replicate the noise by reefing on the back of the seat (jiggle it left to right). How could the noise be caused by a gum wrapper? The service writer DID NOT put that into his report.

Those damned gum wrappers! They're also the cause of my poor gas mileage! Dodge told me that a gum wrapper got stuck behind the accelerator linkage causing the RPM's to come up, hence the low mpg's!

So just mention it to the dodge people?
Just a quick question. I was wondering if you have had to replace the Tork Converter?

I also have a 2011 Dodge Longhorn and only have 1900 kms but it appears that this is a standard problem with this year?

Thanks,

Ed

Thanks for the update on the seat issue. My seat does the same thing when I'm driving down the road. When I take it in for next service I will let them know.

Hopefully it's a quick fix...
