So my 2022 Ram 1500 Laramie Passenger Seat cover repeatedly unclips itself from underneath the front of the seat. This has been going on since I had 200 miles on the new truck. Dealer will reattach at services but Stellantis has continually refused to provide a perm fix. Was ticked but realized that all new car warranties seem to suck, not just Ram (Stellantis). Was going to take it to a auto upholstery shop but chickened out because of all the tech in these seats. My DIY fix was to perm attach with two #8 screws one at each end of the foot long clip. When clipped in, there is about a one inch accessible area at the end of the clip (between clip and fabric) that I drilled a 3/32 pilot hole all the way thru plastic and metal, followed by with a 1/8 drill, then screwed in a black #8 x 1" automotive trim screw from the ORiellys Auto. Works perfect and I did not rip any of the fabric that is attached to the foot long clip.
