Angry Leather seats

I have somehow got a small scratch in my leather seat, on my 2014 Limited. Does anyone know of a repair dye for a issue like that. I'd like to cover it before it would get worse. Thanks

LOL Im not laughing at your misfortune but Ive never heard that saying.thats hilarious. I looked your exact same issue up a year ago I had the same thing, I couldn't find any kind of solution that I felt comfortable with trying myself in the garage. sorry I can't be anymore help. I personally wouldn't run down to the auto zone and grab an 8 dollar bottle of crap to try and fix it myself....

I hope this does not happen to my seats, every damn passenger that gets out of my truck sides there *** down the sides of the seat and does not use the running boards like I ask, same as the slam the hell out of my doors when the windows are down and i have to repeatitly ask them.

U can either dye the seat with SEM paint, or just swap out that piece of leather for a new one at an upholstery shop.

Grrrrr, to the nth degree. Those doors latch/unlatch with ease. I suspect that many folks who report door-related problems (i.e., speakers, windows, mirrors, misc. rattles) are either guilty themselves or carry others who are negligent.

There are rails for the glass, speakers, connectors, plastic pieces (door handle assemblies), electronic controls, harnesses, and other stuff in there that can be broken/dislodged by treating the door as if it's some sort of hatch cover on a tank. A simple one-finger push from 2 inches is all that is needed to close a door on these.

My sister closed the RR door once with a windup when my truck was new. Once ... and then she got the demo.

Same thing with the seats. Use your leg muscles at least for that. How hard can it be?
