Drive dynamic seats popped

Heard a "pfffffffffff" sound going into turns this morning a few times on my ride in. Then a "pop" the third time and noticed failure of the left side of the drive dynamic seat bolsters (part that pushes back in turns). No visible damage to the seat....will take it in to dealer and post on the diagnosis. Anybody else have anything like this happen? Other than this the seats are awesome.

Wow, same thing

I just got done replying to another thread about electrical problems. I had the same thing you have except the right side. It's an air leak. And since the car is so new, no parts in the US. Have to come from Germany and takes two weeks.

You are sure that you haven't exceeded the seat's maximum weight capacity of 260 pounds? j/k...

NICE!!! How lovely. I guess at least its not a critical engine component....like the guy on here who was told he could drive his car with the check engine light on for a month until a part came.
