Uh, WTF? Why is your seat falling apart?

You have much bigger issues than the seat turning white.
My freshmen strength of materials prof said something that has always stuck with me. A designer can engineer something to be used in a reasonable manner. Using your heal to depress a dash mounted cigarette lighter isn't reasonable.

Normal wear and tear or warranty issue?

Within 300 miles I noticed the fabric around my seat latch coming loose. Not near this bad but still coming loose. I let it be for a little while, until I took the car in for its first service (1800 miles). The dealer ordered a new latch but told me that if need be they'll order a new seat cover. I took the car in this past Thursday to get the new latch put on, service manager said that the tech used a bit of adhesive in hopes that it would happen again. It looks good, but we'll see what it looks like after a few hundred miles.

The dealer will have to address it when it goes in for the recall. The car has 2,000 miles and is not a daily driver.

The whiting on the seat fabric could be caused from the combination of bleach in your clothing combined with body sweat....
That corner coming apart is probably from pushing on that area, trying to get it to recline farther...lol... |

I have a 2SS so the seats are leather, but on the driver's seat it started pulling out from under the latch like that. The dealer replaced the seat cover.

The first thing that came through my mind when I saw this - why are you even asking about the white when your seats are falling apart.

Are you dragging across that part of the seat getting in or out of the car?
