Had a rip in my 09 driver seat also, but there was a RRT on the seats and the dealer replaced both front seat covers

When I looked at the sport[ I really liked] given the amount of miles and how many times a day I am in-out , I'm glad I got the bucket cloth . 99,540 miles now . Good luck

If your legs are not long enough to raise your azz off th seat a little get some step bars, it will help.
Your right about the location, its right where it "bends" so to speak. Its just that constant motion and wear and tear right there of getting in and out. I do have step sides but still drag azz on way out lol. Going to check with dodge. My girl has the 07 aspen and it cracks on the wear and tear spot as well. In the past i would use leather conditioner on my f-150 and never happened. I think that is a good learning lesson and if it doesn't help then it can't hurt it either.

That is probably because the F150 uses real leather and our trucks use a fake leather!

My f150 crew cab Lariat did the same on leather and I condition the hell out of it . Leather is easier to clean .
