Car is in the garage now.

Saw the technician bringing out a replacement upper seat cover. (Not a new whole upper seat unit - but I see now obviously they'd only replace the cover.)

Collecting car tonight.

but what guarantees do you have that it won't happen again?

Last time I was in my local dealership I asked if they sold touch up pens to touch up my blonde nappa seats, where the edges get rubbed as you get in and out, and the leather around the inner door pull. The computer said no. I am amazed they do not sell these,
My seat leather is in good order its just the piping colour thats is being rubbed, it does not go deep enough into the leather.

Surely there’s some form of guarantee with warranty work undertaken by the dealer?
I too had my upper seat cover replaced at 6k miles. Now 27k miles later the replacement cover appears to be wearing better than the original.

Yes - that's the new seat cover, the upper seat cover only was replaced.

The original should be attached on this post

Good luck. I hope you don't have to replace it in a short while again.
