Gls 450 2017
Gls 450 front seats upholstery
Just purchased brand new GLS 450 had on it 55 miles. Front seats upholstery look as if an elephant sat on them for a month prior to purchase.
Made a mistake and drove off with the car before making a big deal about it.
i went back and checked the other new cars on the lot and none of them show that problem. i am hearing this is a problem is some of the GLE 2017. Any suggestions?

Is this the Artico (MB tex) upholstery ? If so, it was the same in my Viano, and I was warned about it by the salesguy when I ordered mine, so I went for the cowskin.

My Viano was a 2010 model produced (if memory serves) in Spain. So if the salesguy is to be believed it is neither year, model or origin related.
I think they just make it too thin so it warps under the heat of your behind.
But I don't have any science to support this.
