Leather seats wrinkle easy. Does anybody else have any problems with their leather seats.I have a 2021And they replaced it twice already. I stopped going back because it’s just getting worse each time.Does anybody have any suggestions how to keep the seats from wrinkling? Love the Honda Ridgeline first time and I always had a Chevy Silverado with leather seats and never had a problem any suggestions? Thank you

My 21 doesn’t have this problem. Pics would be helpful.

The left bottom driver's seat bolster begins to crease in all vehicles I've owned with leather interiors after several months - including all six Honda Ridgeline's I've owned. I weigh about as much as the average Afghan.
Here's how Mazda addresses wrinkled leather.

My 22 doesn't have this issue.
But it will, like ALL Ridgelines. I keep a towel on my leather, or I would fully expect that it would be creased by now.
Well...so far it has been 7 months and they look the same as day 1 
What have they replaced twice? Your seat? The leather on your seat?
Do you have a photo of what it looks like?
I have never owned a vehicle in over 40 years that didn't at least do this...but it's not at all bad on my RL after 7-months. If anyone thinks this is "bad" or not "normal", they need psychiatric helpAh, as I suspected. I see wrinkles on the left seat bolster. So, you're saying yours came from the factory looking like this? Mine didn't.

The cloth seats in my '99 Regal were indistinguishable from new after 7 years and 100,000 miles. All of the leather ones wrinkle/crease early on before becoming shiny later on. You should see the left bolster of the leather seat in my Miata after only 7,000 miles! This is normal/typical, but not necessarily desirable.

Yes, my experience too. I would much prefer a good quality cloth seat and would pay a premium to get it.
