Many dealers will send the vehicle to a trim shop for the OEM seat cover replacement since they do not like screwing around with hog rings, j-strips, etc. The seat cover replacement labor operation allows for sublet repair to a repair shop.
Be curious if H3 owners have the same problem; they are supposed to have the new and improved "some type of grain cut" leather. I have 15K and the driver seat looks good. A little crinkling on the outer edge, which is vinyl, but the leather inserts still look good.

I would wonder that too. Really seems like a problem GM should address.
