streched leather
Well, dealer refused to replace my streched leather on my driver's seat. They said its part of normal tear and wear... yeah right, in 3 years? My mom's 96 maxima has better leather.
Oh well, I am not surprised anymore.

same thing happened to my leather...in less than 3 years....leather starting strectching and cracking....took it to dealer and they replaced bottom portion of the seat....they also ended up scatching my steering wheel and i made them replace that too and my rotors and brake pads for the shimmying....it was a tough battle w/them...the kept tellin me it was wear/tear and kept sayin that i had 49k miles, but who cares...the car is less than 3 years old...i finally convinced them to do it.....dealerships are shady.
It makes me nervous to argue with the dealership, once they decided its normal tear and wear its useless to say anything.

It's not Acura. It's the Acura dealers. They need to be regulated. In fact all dealers from all car compinies need to. How can one say yes, & others say no for the same work, or charge different prices. It's good old america I guess.
I'd try another dealer before giving up. Your in NJ try http://www.parkaveacura.com/
They have the best sevice department, & aren't afraid to work on modded cars.

Currently I have 30K miles, but the leather started to become loose at around 20-25K miles ( 2 years of ownership ).
I'd say its a pretty bad time interval for things to become normal tear and wear. And I weight 170lb @6ft, so there is no way its my ass.

I should complain, but its probably useless... unless I go to another dealership, they aknowledge that leather is streched, but say its a "part of normal wear". fucking BS, its a crapy leather they put... thats why

Of course, people are lazy, so they continue to go to whatever is closest and ignore the service quality they get.
