Creaking driver's seat.
My driver's seat frame cracked at about 20,000 miles.
It was a warranty repair, no questions asked by dealership.
I got the impression while it is not exactly a common issue, but it happens often enough that the service reps are well aware of the issue.

I am 100% certain the creaking is coming from the plastic panel on the bottom right side of the driver's seat (part 81648-T5R-A01ZA). Once I removed it, the creaking completely stopped. The question is, how do I make it stop with the cover on?
So I was wrong. The sound returned even without the plastic cover. I went to the dealership and they weren't able to duplicate it. The service adviser was even willing to take a drive with me to hear it, and NOTHING. A few minutes after I left, the sound came back. It's driving me crazy, and making me look crazy.
This is a video of me just parking my car at home. The parking lot is a bit bumpy, but I'm not intentionally trying to make the seat creak

I've been to the dealership three times and they could not duplicate the damn sound.
I don't know. It took at least 3 visits and over a year
I had a mechanic take a ride with me and the 1st time no creaking. Then last week I had a different mechanic and he said it sounded like it was the seat. They ordered a new frame and gave me a loaner for the day. NO creaking since they replaced it. This was at Auburn Honda in CA.
