Where does your dash squeak? Is it your seats, doors?

Also what's tire deflators mean?

I know there are some screws under one of those side panels. Maybe someone else who has this issue can chime in....

I've heard good things about Staunus Auto Tire deflators. I personally just use a valve to check the psi. Deflate till I reach the desired psi..... It cost 3$ from Autozone.

My passenger seat sqeaks. Im thinking a screw is just loose but not sure. It doesn't do it with someone sitting there. Only when Im driving alone.

Mines the same. Just move the seat so it's angle is 90 or less. It stops the squeak

Had the same issue on mine. It was the seat belt (the buckle portion next to the center console). There is a little tab at the very bottom where it bolts to the seat frame. The tab rides in a notch on the buckle keeps it at a certain angle. I added a piece of cloth on the tab that rides in between the notch and the squeak stopped. The best way to get at it is to raise the passenger seat all of the way up.

Only squeak I have is the cover between the steering wheel and the dash, the little cover has some foam or something behind it. I just crank the radio up for a quick fix.

Both mine and my brother's Raptor developed the same "seat" squeak in the driver's seat. Issue was the seatbelt receptacle (which pivots for and aft and left and right). A tiny bit of WD-40 cured it.

To see if you have this issue: Grab the receptacle and pull it aft as far at it will go with a decent (but not insane) amount of force. Then move it left and right. If it squeals like a stuck pig, this is your issue.

When I say "receptacle", I'm referring to the bit by the center console, containing the seatbelt latch and release button.

This is the only annoying noise I've seen the interior make yet.
