Stitching on seat came loose?

gemini.m3 · 10-20-2019, 01:23 PM

The other day I was getting out of the driver seat and heard a 'pop' when I looked closely I realized that the stitching that connects one part of the seat to another ripped open. It isn't really noticeable unless you look for it, but its kinda annoying, can BMW even fix this?

I've attached pics of my good seat and the driver seat

BMW will just order you a new seat, assuming you are still under warranty.

Mine was replaced under warranty. They ordered a new seat skin and had a 3rd party upholstery shop install it.

I did get it fixed - the BMW near me did the leather work in the BMW.

The repair actually exceeded my expectations for a change, but they ordered a new seat cover and threw it on
