Wrinkles on seat

jimthor · Sep 26, 2004

I have found several wrinkles on my cloth seat.
they are towards the front on the left side, near the leg area.
Anyone else found this? Is it normal?
I think they are from the material pulling when I am seated.

Like you I have the Latte cloth - but no wrinkles whatsoever. The fabric is really tight on the seat frame.
Have been driving the MO daily for almost 4 months.

After 16 months, I don't have any wrinkles either (charcoal cloth).

Thanks for the replys.

It like the type of wrinkles when you pull material sideways. the pull marks you know???

Here's a (not very good) picture of my driver's seat. I'm not sure where your wrinkles are . . .

Yes I Know its minor. But Its very noticable at times...

I see what you mean. I don't have that on mine. I'm thinking it has something to do with the padding. It's like the resiliency is gone from that area. It reminds me of a sofa I used to own. It started off with tight cushions, and as time went on, the foam padding started to compress and the fabric began to stretch and form wrinkles. Just a thought.

I have similar wrinkles in my latte leather.

I don't know.......I've always thought that almost no matter what happens to leather, it can be ascribed to "character".

OTOH I would take that Cloth seat in to the dealer, Jim.
If he won't do anything, I believe that any upholstery shop can open it up, replace the foam and close it back up nice and tight for very little.

That was my first thought was take back and have the Dealer fix.
Then I thought, Normal or not, do I want them back in my car ??
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I have a 05 700 miles on it, leather has wrinkles on it why is that? did not ask the dealer about this ,will soon the seat was tight as a drum when I picked it up

I have the leather seats which are becomming more comfortable as time goes by. They have a crease or two on the driver's side but I attribute that to ass-density and girth.

EdMPT · Dec 22, 2004

I dunno about behind density...I only weigh about 160 soaking wet and my drivers seat has some creases...charcoal leather

shoulda got leather man... that wrinkling happened with my altima.. i ended up find the whole leather interior on ebay for a couple hundred bucks..

I think it fitting that my 1000th post is a pun, following up on the stright line above from EdMPT, about your drivers seat having creases.

It is a question "How do you know, did you use a mirror?

jimthor · Dec 22, 2004

the Dealer recovered my seat. No more wrinkles... Yet..
True, leather would be nice. But I get so damn hot. Cnat have sweat marks all over the shirt when exiting a vehicle.

grkmpower · Dec 22, 2004

u can always use the A/C.. lol

GripperDon · Dec 22, 2004

I agree even on the 110F days, "It's no sweat."

grkmpower · Dec 23, 2004

lol yupp

Is this really that big of a problem? Spent another few hours at the dealer yesterday and noticed that the Murano that I've been test driving (less than 150 miles) has some wavy loose marks on the leather right where my wallet is. That alone might prompt me to stay away from the Murano since it seems to be a seat design issue.
