Default Rocking Seat Fix

I took my car to the dealership this morning to work on the rocking seat TSB. The dealership just called and they are telling me that they need to take the to an upholstery place to get the seats re-upholstered. What is this mean? Does the TSB call for this or do you think they tore up my leather by accident?

Dang SB......all them girls broke the seat? I had the leather for the side bolster replace before and the dealer outsource a local 3rd party to fix the leather. Just make sure the place they take it to does a good job! How's the DIC? Its all working now. :jester

You are killing me!!! I am just nervous they had to take it somewhere else to fix it.

My DIC is working just fine, thank you ;)

I just had my rocking driver's seat fixed. I did not get an offer to recover the seats. Were they worn badly?

RIKSTOY,

No, the leather is in good shape. I think they just wanted to make sure the seat is returned to like new condition. I am not complaining as long as they don't take my car on a joy ride.

You guys are trying to make me sound like a $5 (w)horse. Stop that. I'd do it for 25cents. :blueangel:
