why is my front recaro driving seat cloth lifting off like its coming apart from the back rest? anyone know if this is a common problem?
i only have 11000 miles on my car

 

This happened with mine aswell, I think its just from movement. Perhaps sweating has caused it to come apart aswell? I use to drive to the beach alot with my shirt off just driving so I think that also caused some wear.

 

I have 23K and the same problem. Even the passenger seat is starting to do it a little. It seems like it may be "normal" wear, but it pisses me off considering they are Recaros. I'm gonna take it to Mitsu and show them the seats and my calipers and just say wtf?!!

 

I just noticed it was pulling of wen I went to put a TT in yesterday. The car has 24K on it and it kind of pisses me off too. Let us know what happens if you go to Mitsu.

 

Because driving an EVO has a HIGH PUCKER factor!

 

I've already asked, they basically tell you there is nothing they can do.

 

On my 05 the plastic backing on the drivers-side seat cracker and broke off. That was pretty much my fault though, I tried to get in the car with the seat all the way up. I was cleaning the interior and forgot to put the seat back after is was done plus I was in a hurry. Things just happen sometimes.

 

yeah but this sucks nobody has a fix for this??

 

i had this happen on my 03 in the back seat driver side,I took it to mitsubishi and the mechanic there fixed it in 30 minutes and it never lifted again. I have no idea what he did but it worked.

 

Probally just staple it down or somthing.

 

the dealer is suppose to fix this. if you are still in warr. they have to fix it. Keep bringing it back till they do and ask for the DM if they refuse. There were quite a few people with 03's that happened to and they fixed it

 

Life's not fair. If a problem with a car seat is bothersome then you've got a rough road ahead. Hahaha.

 

I have not had the same problem, but I do have an issue with the side of the drivers seat at the bottom always coming untucked. There are two or three plastic pieces sewn to it and they go under the metal on the side of the seat. When you get in and out of the car, the seat squishes and makes it come out. I just keep rolling it back in there, but it is annoying. Maybe it needs some glue....

 

if the cars under warranty they have to repair it, bring it in
