Hello, I have had my RDX now for about 5 years now. I only have 47,000 miles on it. I love it but i have recently had a problem with the front seats starting to get wrinkles, here are some pictures off the seats.

I have always used Meguiar's leather conditioner on the seats and do not know why this has happened. I have looked online at many RDX's for sale and all of them seem to have tight front leather without the wrinkles and bulges and these cars have more miles than mine. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to tighten the leather back up or if you suggest getting a new seat? thanks

 

link doesnt work.

w/o seeing the pics, not that im saying using the product caused your issue, but, i had a family member that perpetually used a similar product on leather in an Acura which greatly accelerated the life (or lack of life) in the surface like creasing leading to tears, wear down of the bolsters etc, leading to full seat replacements.

i am a believer in having a professional clean my car and clean/protect the seats...but only once or twice a year....my RDX has over 54k miles without any significant creasing, downgrade or wear-down concern.

so i guess w/o seeing the pics - how much do you condition? how often? do you use to the product for looks w/o the leather needing it? i would assume you know what you are doing with the product, but have you done so on other vehicles owned? whats goin on?

 

What is a good way for me to put the pictures you all can see them?

 

You don't need to replace the seats -- which would be expensive because airbags and frames are included. You can buy new Acura seat covers (the leather/vinyl shells) and install those for much less. Not all that difficult to DIY either.
