Split faux leather?

[ptruman]

My wife's 2009 A Class has the half fabric/half fake-leather seats, and one of the leather bits has split. It looks mostly clean/straight. Options?

Get the panel replaced, any good auto trimmer could sort it.

As above - plenty of auto trimmers have the mercedes Artico material in stock so can easily replace the panel - from memory costs about £120 inc VAT

Have same problem, Artico pretty poor quality. MB is supposed to be a quality car!!

Use a good local trimmer with good reviews for their work. Google should find someone in your area.

take it to Mercedes and try for a goodwill repair...It shouldn't have split...even fiats have seat over 20 years old that don't split...I had my seat squab replaced by mereceds out of warranty...I had to make a contribution....but it was worth it.....
