(T) mice infestation

Enjoying the honeymoon period with my new stilo and in all honesty , im v impressed. However, it would appear that the seats are'nt built to the highest standards. Only 658 miles driven and my drivers seat squeaks like hell constantly (would appear to come from base of seat) also the material is starting to appear wrinkley, ie it no longer stretches tight over the seat base, looks like an old settee cushion. Is this normal, Am i being to fussy? anyone else got this?

Havent got the mice but the cloth on the drivers seat has gone baggy after 1100 miles in my 2005 jtd.Trip to the dealer needed i think.Dread to think what it will look like in 10000 miles time...

yeah, does'nt bode well. I've yet to meet my local dealer, bought it in worcester, live in york, so have to see how receptive they are.

I've seen a number of posts on this subject, and I noticed that mine was looking a bit saggy the other day.

After investigating, I found the fit between the base and back is quite tight, and when you tilt the seat back forward it pulls the fabric in the base with it (3 door seats). I found that by tilting the seat forward, then manipulate fabric between base and back, I could when I tilted the seat back make the fabric all go tight again.

An old problem - don't think it is affected if you are a 5-door owner, and/or have leather.

Plenty of posts, try doing a search

Yeah my Drivers seat is the same - I even had new foam put in - Its a bit better but still loose.

8k on clock & my seat hasn't gone saggy but the material is not tight over the seat anymore. Reading post on here not worth getting replaced I presume!

You've all missed the most obvious cause of the Mice problem.

If you look under the car you'll find your CAT has gone and let the mice in

(OK I know bad joke!!)

My drivers seat is a little baggy on the bottom also and I have leather. I've done just over 2000 miles now and i thought this was something that just happens anyway, but thinking back It never happened on my focus even after nearly 3 years.
What Should we expect from fiat on this if we ask them to fix it ?

I'm sort of not too bothered about it because i'm thinking of getting a custom leather/suede interior done next year, but theres a principal involved here.

18K on my car and my drivers seat looks fine! Mind you i don't fidget like i've got worms, maybe some of you should investigate into a worming treatment!

I always find a good lampost to scratch my ass on so it can't be that

Mines got 36k on it and the leathe on the divers seat is a bit 'wrinkly' in the middle but figured it was just my fat arse doing it

B'ah humbug - you know you need the ointment.....
