Has anyone else had any issues with the faux leather cracking/splitting on the driver seat? I've had the car for 18 months(GTLS) and just noticed on the right hand side of the bottom seat is quite badly cracked...not sure if this is covered by warranty........

hi all,
Due to me living 45 mins away from any Kia dealer, i waited until it was due a service to report the fault which i did back in November.
They took photos and sent them off to Kia.
Kia said the pictures weren't clear enough and needed more evidence!
Luckily I had changed jobs and went past the garage every few weeks so managed to call in during opening hours for further photos to be taken.
It took kia 2 weeks to decide but they eventually replaced the bottom section of my seat under warranty.
However, a crack has now appeared on the back section so I'll have to go back again. Shouldn't take as long this time i hope!
