Have you maxed out your warranty already? If not take it back to the dealer and have them look into it. That's the best part of a new car....no maintenance for you. Otherwise, try using some type of lubricant to stop the metal on metal contact your probably hearing. Try a white lithium spray or something.

yes i have a 2004 so the warranty is still valid obviously. looks like the belt is rubbing againts the seat actually so spray wouldn't be helpful. i guess im screwed, but if someone has an idead let me know!

Your call but I would have the dealer look into it. What your mentioning is referred to as a BSR (buzz,squeak,rattle) issue. If my vehicle did that I would have them replace the seat if necessary.
