wmmallette Report post Posted March 26, 2016 I have a 2015 FFH SE. My drivers seats makes an irritating squeaking sounds everytime I accelerate or hit the brakes ( basically move at all in my seat). It doesn't seem to be anything metal. It sounds more like plastic, but it is hard to determine the exact cause. Any help from someone else who has had a similar issue would be sooooooooo appreciated.

mwr Report post Posted March 26, 2016 The only help I can offer is that my 2015 FFH SE (luxury package, leather) has no such sound. I suggest a trip to your dealer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteveB_TX Report post Posted March 27, 2016 I had/have the same issue with my MKZ. I was going to take it to the dealership and complain about a $50,000 car with a squeaky drivers seat. Before I could take it in, I had to readjust the seat up and down and the seat back forward/aft. After the adjustments the squeak was gone. Hmmm. The next time it squeaked I did the same procedure. It fixed it again. I am guessing that over time, the seat gets used to its position and wants to be noticed. I dunno. Worked for me. :) 1 usererror reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Riggo Report post Posted March 30, 2016 A lot of these cars are just poorly built in my opinion. I've had a 2013 and now 2014 fusion titanium and both of them were/are loaded with rattles and squeaks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Riggo Report post Posted March 30, 2016 That's interesting, because my 2015 (one of the first ones) has no rattles or squeaks at 22,000 miles. Maybe I just got two bad vehicles. It drives me insane how many rattles mine has. I have what sounds to be something metal that will buzz very loudly at random times somewhere around the passenger footwell area, buzzing in the passenger door and pillar area, dashboard buzzing, headliner buzzing around the top left of the drivers seat, center console buzzing that i can sometimes stop if I grab on to the area between the shifter and radio, and finally, some kind of loud rattle in the trunk that I can't figure out at all. It makes a car I like a lot, miserable. I guess this really isn't the right place to rant about this though. :drop: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

talmy Report post Posted March 30, 2016 40,000 on our 2014 SE and no squeaks or rattles. Yet our supposedly Japanese-perfect Camry has rattled since day one. You never know. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ceilidhdog Report post Posted March 31, 2016 My 2013 FFH SE with 22,000 miles is as tight and quiet as the day I drove it out of the dealer's lot 30 months ago. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Riggo Report post Posted April 1, 2016 Do most of you drive on smooth country roads or are any of you in the city? I frequently drive in the city where bumps and potholes (although I haven't hit any potholes yet) are plentiful. I guess after going over this terrain enough everything just starts coming loose?

usererror Report post Posted August 7, 2017 I have a 2015 FFH SE. My drivers seats makes an irritating squeaking sounds everytime I accelerate or hit the brakes ( basically move at all in my seat). It doesn't seem to be anything metal. It sounds more like plastic, but it is hard to determine the exact cause. Any help from someone else who has had a similar issue would be sooooooooo appreciated. Just found this post via a search, and I am chiming in on this old post to say that my driver's seat does the same thing over time. It happens about every month or so now. I'm out of warranty. My solution is the same as SteveB_TX. I move the seat into every position's extreme most position (all the way up and then all the way down for example) on each switch. After that the sound goes away for a little while. I'd love a real fix as well. It is comforting that I'm not the only one... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2014FordFusionSE Report post Posted January 22, 2021 No squeaks or rattling at 52k miles on my 2014 FFH. It's so quiet when in EV mode that I can hear a slight rumble when the AC blower kicks in. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
