07 Expy with 11K miles and about 5 months on it. The drivers seat bottom is already showing wear. Is this common on Ford trucks? Man, seems way too soon. I take meticulous care of my seats too. Here are a couple of pix.

 

...................................21,300 mile's/13 month's old,I have maybe 10% of the ware you show???????.

 

I have had the same issue with my '05 which has 32K on it. In the same spot. I took mine into the dealer a couple weeks ago and they had that wearing section re-dyed. It was a perfect color match, but not a permanent fix for the problem. Unfortunately, I think it's the quality of the leather.

 

Yeah. It stinks. This is going to be a high traffic area for the seat and they should have 'beefed' it up some. How did the leather of yesteryear last so dang long and with abuse!

 

Im having the same issue cept worse! my arm rest is showing the inner foam. Im trying to get them to replace the entire leather seat OR leather shell.
