Squeaking tailgate
I don't know if anyone else has had a very annoying squeaking noise occuring everytime your bed shakes, but it nearly drove me crazy. I traced it to my tailgate and just sprayed some WD-40 on the latches. Totally cured it. Hope this helps another easily annoyed person out there.

Had the same issue the dealer tried to state that it was due to the bedliner and a little overspray. WE were able to get it off and it still did it. He was about to replace it only I would have to pay to respray it again and I suggested the same thing and it worked. that was like 5 months ago and no issues since. Belive I will use white teflon on it herer shortly to assure it stays quite. thanks for letting me know I was not crazy or the only one.

not on this one but on an old toyota had the springs in the bottom of the seat squeek when you sat down or shifted weight. layed a lot of news paper down in the floor board and lightly lubed the springs and life was good. Not sure it that is where yours is or are you refering to the lumbar support in the back?
