Well to update I was in the area of my dealer and had to pick up my plates so while there I asked about the leather. They told me that bubbling was normal and that Acura recommends using Lexol Conditioner. You know I was considering complaining about the wrinkles and the bubbling but I remembered my conclusion about the rattles. Who cares. I mean unless it gets bad like yours and starts to peel, I'm not gonna worry too much. I mean as long as my butt feels comfortable I have no problems. Not like my passengers have X-ray visions and can see the wrinkles on the seat below my ass.

That is horibble.. your local stealer should replace it. In the car and driver review they said the RL seats were very comfy but the leather was of poor material.

Wow! WTF?

I've been lurking here as I muddle over the TL vs 330i vs 9-3SS Aero and in my current car, a 2001 Viggen with 44K miles on the clock, I have nothing like this. Rattles and poor leather. Not good. The seats in the TL seem great but durability for a daily driver is an important factor that seems to be missing here. Too many complaints about a part of the car that should be easy to get right.

I like TL very much. I think it is a great car mechanically. I do not like the build quality of interior though.
