yes, that stretching shit is happening to me as well. I'm taking my car back to the dealer tomorrow. It seems just a little too early for this to be happening.

After 3,000 miles I don't have the butt wrinkling problem. I have noticed two other issues with the Leather.
In the drivers seat on the perforated 'bottom' insert fuzz is coming out of the little holes.
And I've noticed the rear of the passenger headrest is very, very wrinkled.
Have not yet conditioned the leather. It's spend little time in the sun and is garaged at night.
I wonder when I should condition it?

I really hope that the dealer does something about this. Someone on this forum stated that they talked to their dealer about the seats and they agreed to replace them. I'll see what happens tomorrow.

Spray some Laxol or Zaino leather conditioner and it will smooth and fluffy like a baby.

Condition your leather regularly from day 1. Zaino, Zymol, Lexol (there are a few more) all make great conditioners. I prefer Zaino and Lexol currently using Zaino less greasey and easier to apply, but the others are good also. Get their cleaners also to clean before you condition. Once a quarter is usually often enough.
