Leather comes with heated/cooled seats. If you get cloth you don't get the heated/cooled option. Other than that, everything else is seperate.

 

I haven't seen any Laramies without leather (and I've seen at least 40 of them) and I know you can't get the heated/cooled seats unless you get the leather seats.

 

There has been quite a bit of discussion on here about this, but our warranties will not disappear. There might be some uncertainty or some difficulty getting things accomplished for a short while, but our warranties will not disappear even if Chrysler does.

 

have 800 miles on mine and have the same issue...this is bull

 

Anyone who bought a 2009 Dodge Ram with the heated/cooled vetilated seats that are experiencing abnormal seat wear.
Please post a discription of the wear and add a picture if you have time.

I will not cease searching for a resolve for all us with this failing seat cover.

Thanks
Blue

 

I have been following this thread since the beginning. I am one of the people who's weight is mostly on the outside portion of the seats, but I too have noticed that I am beginning to get the "wavy" pattern that looks like a "butt print". It looks exactly like the last pictures that blue2050 posted of his new covers. I will try to remember to take my camera with me to get pictures.

I have a Laramie CC with heated/cooled seats and the light colored interior. Built 03/09 Currently 1000 Miles

 

This is taken with my ipone, it looks a lot worse in person.

 

gotta say--this little problem is holding me up a bit from commiting to a laramie purchase--thats a headache I dont need-going every 2 months to get the seat recovered--

 

I currently have an Acura TL and when the 3rd gen (2005 - 2008) came out they had the same issue with the seats. My current TL (99 model with 155k miles) seats look better than my buddies 2007 TL with 40k miles. If I recal it did get better but there were/still are issues. I really think that the perforated leather they are using is the root cause, and I can't think of what will fix it. It is just not as durable as the "leather/vinyl" that has been used for so long. I test drove a laramie with the AC seats and did not notice the issue but I could tell that the leather was not as "firm" as my current seats. it was much more giving and I could tell it could stretch/move.

it is a shame because the seats look GREAT and the AC function was on my short must have list for my next vehicle. Hopefully the wear does not become extreme or I may have to take that want off the list...

 

So blue, did you get a new truck and give up on the replacement seat?
