Leather seats are in need of help!!

Yamifz1 · Oct 23, 2017

I have a 2010 Sport with leather seats ( so they say, it's bonded leather I think) and the drivers seat is starting peel. I was wondering if anyone has dealt with this issue before and if you have any recommendations. I have thought about seat covers but am not sure what I would use as the seats are heated and cooled so I would need perforated leather. Anyone got suggestions?

I had the same on my 2010 where I slide in and out of the drivers seat. Each individual cover can be ordered from chrysler and you remove the old one and replace it with a new one over the factory foam. Not cheap though and a bit more work to swap it rather than cover it. I paid around 300 I think for the drivers seat lower only, which was the only one I wore out in my truck. Most upholstery shops can swap it for you as well.

Depending on what you want to spend you could always look at Katzkin leather. It's kind of expensive but, unlike a cover, actually replaces your current seat material. Supposed to be really nice leather.

That may be the way to go. I'm exactly the same, where I slide in on the drivers side is worn.

Have been looking at them and they are pricey, guess it all depends on how much the seat fraying bothers me. I have been living with it for a few years now, just thought it was time to start looking at my options.

Clazzio covers go right over your old seats. Whole new interior is like 500 bucks. You tube it. Katzkin makes factory replacement but they require you to take old covers off. Think they are 900 for entire interior?? Check them out maybe??

I had an old car with the same problem. Found a replacement seat at a pick n pull lot for like $100 and swapped it in.

For future reference - I use RAM seat towels - they protect my seats well from sweat and water and what not. Seats still look new at 50k.
