Bolt piercing driver/passenger seat leather
I recall someone pointing out that there are bolts piercing the leather of the driver and passenger seat. I just saw first hand what they are talking about but I could not find the thread as to what the solution was. Has anyone taken their 08 to the dealer for corrective action? I'm only 160lb, but I some how got the bolt to pierce the leather in my drivers seat and I fear having the dealer hack a solution other than replace the seat. Problem is the bolts are piercing both sides of the seat passenger/driver. I suspect I'm taking corners too fast. [IMG][/IMG]

Run your hand between the right side between leather seat bottom and seat rail with controls on it.... all the way to the back... feel that? Same place other side.

I did the same. Will post a pic tonight when I get home.

I put a small rubber cap over the bolt ends and seems to be holding

WOW, that is not good. Just took a look at mine and those things will put a hole through you seat, it's just a matter of time. Has anyone contacted Dodge about a fix, otherwise they are going to be replacing a ton of seats.
