A creaking noise coming from the rear seats a low speeds? Temporary Solution
I don't know if anyone else besides me had this problem, but I thought I'd share my solution anyways.
For some reason the striker on the drivers side rear wasn't aligned properly with the seat and was causing an annoying creak at low speeds.
The creaking noise is coming from one of the two strikers on the rear seats. The strikers are the "U" shaped metal pieces that latch the rear seats when they're folded up.
The fix, which is sadly only temporary, is to fold down the rear seats, get a pry bar and strongly pry UPWARDS on the striker for about 5 seconds.
Eventually, (4-5 days) the noise will return. Not sure of a permanent fix yet

There is at least one other thread on this problem, but I cannot find it.
