I think there was a TSB on this but I couldn't find it. Searching for seat back did uncover this cheap fix (parts from the dealer):

Yeah there's a tsb on it. I had it done on my old auto CLS. Buying new clips might fix it. There only about $4 from any dealer.

If you're still under warranty, it should be covered under material defects and not cost you anything.

Tony, I had the same problem last week, my car has 56K miles and well I am getting this fixed next week at no charge, check with your dealer. I am in the East Bay and so far no problems with Acura of Fairfield, those guys take care of my car all the time. I didn't notice the seat cover was falling off but they did, they ordered the part for me and called me asking me to bring my car on Saturday. Good Luck. BTW, I also have an 01 CLS
