I've read on here that others have had theirs replaced under warranty.

If they start coming apart for no apparent reason: BRP has been replacing them. :thumbup:

My RT Limited seat is that way! the white thread is coming out, but the seat is holding together fine! Can an upholstery shop put the white thread back in the seat?

On my 2011 RTS, BRP replaced my whole seat in 2012. No questions asked. Bruce

I have a 2013 RT, i believe they replaced it the first year i had it. It started coming apart by the glove compartment.

Your dealer should get a response soon. There was an issue with seats. :thumbup:

BRP know about the stitching issue on the seats that's why they replace them while under warranty. It is normally the way the seat pulls when sat on that causes the issue. It is a pressure point that they have failed to address properly. Mine was changed on 11RT very early in the ownership and then it did it again about 6-12mths later, reported it to the dealer and BRP told me to go whistle. It hasn't got any worse but you know it is there and the stealer will use it as a picking point when time to trade, despite them having full knowledge of them doing it. If your still under warranty you shouldn't have any drama - they will either reskin it or just replace the whole thing.

My new Comfort Seat was replaced under warranty no more than two months after I bought it. Short run of defective stitching, absolutely no questions asked.
