Leather seat scratch

Ok, so I'm cleaning my car and I find a small tear in the leather in my back seat. It's not that bad now, but it might get worse if I don't do anything about it. I'm afraid it will stretch and open up. What can I do to fix it? This isn't part of the warranty is it?

I had a rip on mine and I took it to the dealer and they repaired it under warranty. Just tell them it wasn't your fault.

- Took mine to Acura of Denville (NJ) and they replaced the leather (no questions asked). Same exact scenario as you.

Thats BS, the leather should hold up for much longer.
