Default Those with Leather

Just picked up my truck last Friday going on 82 miles been busy moddin on it. The leather on the drivers seat seems really loose(stretched) specially considering it has less than 90 miles on it and I'm on 170 pounds wet.

I have had many vehicles with leather never had this issue especially so soon. I also had a 2012 F150 the leather on the seats in that was nice and tight the whole time I had it. Anybody else having the same issues?
Thanks

I too have the same problem. I started a topic about it. I was contact by a Ford rep today and was told to take my truck to the dealership. The dealership was also contacted and was told I was on my way. Photos were taken and was told they would check on it.

I had the same issue, buy it seemed to retigthen with the overnight. Not sure it the looseness was caused by heat or what. Does it stay like that or tighten back up?

I have the same thing, my dealer said it's normal and will eventually go away. I've never had leather so I don't know if he's telling the truth or just trying get out of fixing it.

I'll look when I get back out there, but pretty certain mine hasn't done that.

Mine are that way and it's a little disappointing. Just turned 3500 miles today and plan to mention this to the dealership at my first oil change.

Confirmed mine is starting to do the same at ~1500 miles. But as long as it's forming to my butt and no one else's, it doesn't really bother me. In fact I didn't even notice until the OP. But now that I DO notice...
