Rear Seat Problem

Ok so the bottoms of my rear seats are starting to crease really bad on both sides. Barely anyone ever sits back there (probably less than 10 times behind the passenger and less than probably 3 behind the driver and the car is about a year old). I use meguirs gold class leather and conditionar cleaner on it and they are leather seats. Like I said there is almost no one ever back there and I never put any items in the back (always the trunk). So any ideas?



It's also starting to happen to the top of the rear seat where there's stiching on the area right above the lower back part with the holes.

Maybe from the seats heating up and cooling down? It could stretch them when hot and contract when they're cold. That's my guess.

Yea, I do have heated seats (don't know if the back ones have it as well) but I never use it. I also have 20% window tint. But your thoughts are probably it.

Well my guess would be the heat thats locked up in your car from when you park it. Not from the heaters in your seat. From the sun.
