have another person drive the car and you lay down across the back seats, and as the person drives, try to locate the source of the squeak / creak. if and when you locate the source, point it out to the service manager.

I have a squeak coming from the drivers seat belt tensioner. I haven't had it in yet to be repaired as it's really no big deal, will just get it handled it at next scheduled repair. My wife thought at first it was related to the brakes, as it only occurred when the brakes were first applied (I have her conditioned to tell me about any unusual noises.)

Thats right. This car still hesitates(after re-programming).Front left window vibrates/rattles, moonroof rattles(except when shade is pulled). Stereo sounds muffled,trunk was on on crooked when I purchaed it,and dash rattles.Now, back to my 4 visits to Toyota on this seat issue.First visit- service tech says it is just the sound that leather makes.Of course that did'nt fix it. 2nd visit - service tech rides wiht me and points to moonroof and says there's the problem.I then just pulled the shade.Still not fixed. 3rd visit - service mgr says there is a TSB on the problem and they will order a "special lube/grease" to fix it and will call me when it comes in.That did'nt work. 4th visit - service mgr tells me a Toyota rep will be in town and he will take it for a ride with him.They come back,the Toyota rep is so nauseated from laying down in the back seat he can hardly speak, but the decide it is in the A-pillar or B pillar, but it is not the seat.This seat will squeek and creak sometimes when the car is not even moving.

Since you want to have a new Camry for the side curtain airbag, I would like to inform you that there is a recall on 2007 Toyota Camry due to airbag failure (including the side curtain airbag) to deploy on unspecified vehicles.
NHTSA Campaign I D Number: 06V096000
Recall date: 04/03/2006
Source of info:
http://www.motortrend.com/cars/2007/toyota/camry/recalls/index.html
Also an owner of SE 5-sp AT 2007 Camry reported today on another website that the front and the knee airbags failed to deploy in a high speed head on collision and Toyota insisted the airbags not deploying was the owner's fault.
I wonder why Toyota did not inform the customers about the recall by mail and TV broadcast instead of waiting for the customers to find out the recall on the internet if they are "lucky" enough or find out the hard way when the air bags fail to deploy in a serious accident then refused to take responsibilty inspite of the recall.

Did you see the number of cars effected ? I am sure those are effected has been notified. The vast majority of cars are not effected. You are making a big deal out of nothing

Of course, I see that the recall says the potential units affected is 133 vehicles. I wish you were right to be so sure that those affected have been notified.
Do you have confirmation from Toyota that all those 133 vehicles have been identified and that the owners have been notified directly by mail or phone? If not,why are you so sure about it?
If all owners of the 133 Camry affected have been notified as you believe, can you explain why customer JD on the other website has not been notified when his 2007 Camry also has problems with the airbags?
Of course I agree with you that a vast majority of of 2007 Camry are not affected but unless all those 133 vehicles have been identified and the owners notified directly,I don't think it is a big deal out of "nothing" no matter how small the probability is.
