Full Version: Leather Seat 'bedding In' ?

This might sound daft but I am sure my drivers seat is faulty. It has 2 creases in the shape of wide arcs - as if I have been sitting on an upside down dinner plate on the seat cushion. None of the leather seats in any of my previous cars have ever creased at all but this is the first I have had with perforated custions.

Does this sound normal? I intend to ask the dealer next week - or should that be a doctor :=)

Cheers in advance

Does sound weird - unless you wear a plate on your backside.......

Can you feel a difference when you push down on the seat with your hands on either side of the arcs? Can you feel any definition under the seat that could be causing it?

Nope - don't wear a plate as a rule.....

When I push down on the seat is seems to have a bump in the middle and dip either side - bit like a horses saddle but nothing that would cause this.

Lexus Seats are not the best - I have had them replaced on my LS, GS and now RX. Seems if you are "bigger boned" they can sag. Lexus didn't raise a fuss and just replaced them. I would ask for another.
