Smashed driver seat... Anyone else?

I had the seat foam replaced in my last truck, this one has held up just fine. It's a cheap fix, cheaper than taking the wife out for valentines!!

You know there is a dollar menu at McDonalds...

my truck has 2000 miles on it and you can already tell the bolsters are flattening out and the leather is wrinkling (i'm not fat, btw). It happened on my 2010 as well and I ended up having the seat foam replaced although that was its own adventure because the leather never fit right again. anyway...it's common.

mine had wrinkles in them virtually from day 1. even on the passenger side where hardly anyone has ridden. guess everything ive read about the seats being crap is true.

And White Castle has Valentine's specials, complete with white table cloths and roses on the tables.

I like the wrinkles gives it character

Here we go again. Everything that doesn't last or isn't perfect is now "crap."

Any of you guys ever have leather seats before?

IMO, the seats in the Raptor are awesome.

Seats are awesome. Leather is shit, Dan. I thought you had driven BMW's? Seats in my 5 series were 10 times thicker leather than the Raptor's.

I think it could be a warranty fix. If it's in warranty still, take it in. The worst they can say is no. You don't have to tell them the previous owner was Wally the Hippo. Just tell them something seems wrong and you want it fixed.
If they don't fix it, take it to a good upholsterer. They know stuff you don't on how to repair that kind of thing.
Look under the seat and see if the bars or any items are bent or broken.

Thanks guys... Lots of great input. Ill stop in at ford and see if I can get a warranty fix. It'd be tough letting an upholstery shop screw with it... I'd have to find someone who knew what they were doing.

And to the guy upset about people trying to get everything covered under warranty... A warranty is part of what we're buying when we drop $50,000 on a vehicle. Interesting that you pay for the service and get upset about people using it... To each his own tho

thats what i meant. the seats are as comfortable as anything ive ever sat in. i was just hoping the leather would look brand new for longer than a month and a half.
