The conditioner is absorbing the dye from your jeans..... Judicious use, and wipe dry with a towel after using..... try to do it when the leather will have an extended period to dry.

Good luck on getting it out! (I really mean that, as it won't come out easily) Saddle soap may help.

Is anyone having the same problem? Does anyone have a suggestions?

this is easy it"s your jeans. your options are wear slaks (preferably of a nutreal color) or put a towwel on the seat.

Default Bleeding leather seats

I do not disagree that light color seats will soil over time. However the "blue" problem is a separate issue all together. It is definitely a manufacturing problem and Chrysler has agreed to this. Ay this point they have no known cure. This problem is a bleeding of blue dye coming through the leather hide. I have not had the problem with my last two Chrysler vehicles with light color leather seats. We are working with an attorney and are considering a class action suite.
