They probably won't look at it..
I have had responses before, but yes, that may be true. I guess i need to take mine into the dealer

Don't get me wrong, they will respond but they usually ignore sites like this.I have had responses before, but yes, that may be true. I guess i need to take mine into the dealer
Checking Back in. had an apointment with the dealership this morning, and they will replace the leather and some of the seat component under warranty.
Can you post a pic of the seat once replaced, im keen to see if the "bubble" as im sure it will be referred to from now on is still there or is everything tight like the 1st gen.

CUSTOMER MENTIONS TO CHECK AIR BUBBLE ON LEATHER DRIVER SEAT, VERIFY BOTTOM LEATHER TRIM FROM DRIVER SIDE, IT MAKES A BUBBLE. DID A FLASH TECH NO 65062. ORDER THE LEATHER TRIM AND LEFT FRONT BOTTOM CUSHION. replace buttock leather and foam buttocks. The old one had to be dismounted to put a pin in front so that the leather could hold on the buttocks and transfer a foam to the side of the buttocks.
So we can replaced it then. I going to see my dealer to see what he says about mine. Mine is a lot worse than your before photo. It is very bulgy.
I have this same issue with my 2017 GT as well. The good news is that the dealer is covering under warranty. The bad news is that I don't know if is the passenger seat as well since I haven't had anyone really ride with me consistently yet.
Had the work done, here are the details:

Much better now!
So seems like a production issue where they are not putting it together properly causing an air bubble to occur
Well, the "bubble" is back. It was good for about a week and it came back. Must be something in the design or the way i sit? Perhaps by butt is too bony and is creating a pressure point that causes the material to stretch (boom01)
Wow, a week!?! Is it even worth going back to the dealer to go through all that troubles X_X ... *sigh* and I was planning to get mine looked at.

I've only had my brand new 2018 CX-5 for a week, and now the driver's seat is already wrinkling and getting pumpy.
Anyone else having same issue soon after about a week?
Thank you.
