Anyone know anything about the seats?

I got my seats replaced under warranty due to bubbling and now the new one is starting to bubble... Is Infiniti doing anything to fix this with newer seats/better leather? I mean I'm sure this isn't a blind issue to them.. Nor do I want to go to the dealer every 2 months to get seats replaced. This is ridiculous!

I think switching from perforated to solid leather would solve the issue.

The holes present weak spots in the structure of the leather, so the leather that is there has to support more load under tension.

Because typing 'seat' into the search function for the forum is too hard . . .

Is it really that big of a deal? It's hardly noticeable and it doesnt effect the seat comfort. I understand it shouldn't happen but it's really not something worth getting all worked up over IMO
