I own a 2006 Sante Fe (Early 2G), I am concerned about the wear on the outside eadge of the drivers seat, the leather seems to be getting thin and more pliable. I am concerned it will split. Has anyone experienced this and/or any advice. I have emailed Hyundai UK CS but so far no repsonse. Vehicle registered April 2006, 42,000 miles on clock.
Thanks

Hi Riv
Just take it into your dealer for a 2nd opinion- Leather is very durable and doesn't just split- you can put some good leather cream into the seat to make it pliable and this should help alot- The dealer can check under the leather to make sure it has no direct contact from say a metal bar so as to make sure there is no splitting.
Alternatively you could place a bit of foam under the seating between the seat and the leather and this should help matters too.

Cheers
Itza
