This is a known problem and covered under warranty. They will replace the rails and sometimes the frame. Take it to the dealer. Be prepared to be without your Jeep for a few days, ask for a loaner.

HaHa...unless, like my dealer, they say they can't recreate it.

A lot of the times the creaking/popping doesn't happen in the passenger seat unless someone is sitting in it. So take your service rep or tech on a ride. you drive. Let them hear it.

It only happens in my driver seat and it is quite frequent. When I had it in to have the steering stabilizer recall done, I asked them to look at it. They told me they took it for a ride with the service manager but couldn't recreate it. Knowing my luck, I'd take them for a ride and wouldn't be able to reproduce it either. I am wondering if I could have my wife record it, but then I think they would still deny it if they couldn't recreate it.

Thanks, my service manager is a couple houses down, trying to determine what parts he should order.
