About 70 miles after purchase and seats are showing heavy wear

[impactblue]

Or at least what I would consider heavy wear for a car I picked up last night. Also have a rediculous wheel hop problem but that's a different thread



Will the dealer fix it?

I dont want to be a dick

Its a ford

They'll never figure out the seat wear on anything

Grrrrr

How tall are you? What's your weight?

^^Has a good point.

That isnt wear. It looks like poorly fitted seat upholstery. If It were mine I wouldnt worry about it. They could put a new one on and it could look worse.

Went through the same thing on a new super duty, it looks like loose material IMO. I took my superduty back in and had them replace it.

I would take it in to the dealership

And you get wheelhop during every day driving? I doubt you'll be doing burnouts at every stop sign and traffic light.

Last night there was some rain. Tiniest hint of wheel spin and the car feels like it's going to shake itself to death. The cars passenger side wheels were curbed by a dealership employee and the steering wheel is a little bit to the left while driving. They are fixing the wheels but I'm hoping it's not damaged

Took delivery of a car with curbed wheels? Ya I hope it's not damaged either

It was a dealer trade. Actually had 250 miles on it

Let’s get this seat cover situation addressed, impactblue. Definitely make an appointment with your dealer for all current concerns. Then, PM me with your VIN, dealer, mileage, full name, and best daytime number so I can escalate it to the customer service manager for your area.

It must of been a problem at flat rock because the other seat is starting too and all that's been in it is my tiny girlfriend. So happy the dealer and ford is on top of this. I've gotten calls from the dealer and the areas manager to assure me I'm taken care of
They have
