Rear Seat Release Button
I just noticed that the leather is starting to pull away from the rear seat release button trim. On both sides!! Anyone else experiencing this??

Looks like a faulty cut. Dealer replacement is in order.

I am - on both sides as well. I'm ignoring it. It's on the very bottom of the list of things I'd rather get fixed on this car.

I shoved it back under the plastic. Problem solved (at least in my eyes).

Mine is doing the same thing. My dealer took pictures and sent them to Ford 2 days ago. Waiting to hear what they are going to do. Still under 36,000 miles.

My dealer is going to replace the cover on the offending seat. Under warranty.

Hey everyone,

If you're currently experiencing this, I want to assist by getting your case escalated. To get started, send me a PM with your VIN, dealer, mileage, daytime phone number, and full name. I'll take it from there!
