Question Leather seats problems?

I did a search but looks like this type of poll has not been done before.

Does your Pilot have problems with the leather seats?

We've put this one through the wringer about a bazillion times. 50% have a problem and care, 50% have a problem and don't care, 50% don't know they have a problem and don't care, and 50% don't care.

Oh no... Not more of that fuzzy math! My head still hurts from the math in that thread on the third row seats removal.

and 50% of the 5% that actually use their rear seats only care when they're using their seats!

It makes perfect sense... it's like an isoceles triangle!

You guys are ganging up on me.......................Maybe I'll test drive an Envoy this weekend. Maybe take advantage of the Pilot's high trade in value and buy a good old made in America GM product. That GMC Envoy is a much better looking truck anyway. That'll show you!

Then I go into GM chat rooms and rag Honda's and Toypta's as being nothing but recycled beer can Jap junk. Wait a minute................my Honda was made in Canada. What's that Canadian beer called? Do they drink beer in Canada? Isn't it too cold to drink beer in Canada? Maybe they drink warm English beers. And if you thing GM cars are bad, English cars are worse.

Maybe that's a bad idea. I think I'll keep my Honda. I like my Honda!

Sure glad I've got fabric seats!

Just in time for Summer, my own idea for a new GM commercial...

Picture this...
Two people, husband and wife, hand-in-hand, taking a moonlit walk.
They're all alone, nobody else around...
Not a care in the world because...
Their no-good POS GM SUV just died on them, left them stranded in the middle of freakin' nowhere and they don't care about anything anymore because they probably won't live to see tomorrow!!!

Yeah - I've got a problem with my leather seats - they are covered with tiny little holes. SUVs shouldn't have perforated leather! I'll have to put seat covers on them to keep the mud out of all these little holes.

I agree on the Envoy - great looking vehicle. In the dollar range it was my second choice behind the Pilot but because I'd read the the handling was so poor, we didn't even bother with a test drive.

I can't say that my leather seats have an issue, but I am concerned they will develop more of a problem than the "sagging" others complain about. I never wanted leather either, but I did want Nav, and wanted the sun roof, so we got stuck with the leather.

My wife likes it, and LOVES the seat heater, too. However, I was very, very happy with the cloth seats in my Jeep GC that I traded on the Pilot. After 11+ years and 110k miles, they still looked great. They were never hot and never cold, and I really never worried about them at all. Yes, I'm sorry I couldn't get cloth...
