Default Leather problem

I have a 2023 C8 Z51 convertible with Adrenaline red leather. A couple of months after i took delivery, a little black dash appeared on the piece of leather that covers the mode selector. Two weeks later, it had four of those spots. The dealer ordered a new piece of leather and installed it. Two weeks later, the same thing happened: first one spot then two and now three. I thought the leather was defective, but now think maybe the glue is bleeding through? Has anyone else dealt with this problem.
