My 2011 Camaro also had fabric seats. The material was different. Drove it for 5 years and almost 60k miles before getting this and those seats showed no noticeable wear at all. Why did Chevy go with a less durable material than Gen 5? Anyway I'll see if my dealer will order a replacement back seat cover. He knows I buy Chevys and may buy another if he treats me right.

The fabric seats seem to wear better than the synthetic leather covers on the bolster from my experience.

For those owners with worn cloth seats, this post I stumbled upon on PriusChat should make you feel better.

I just looked at my extended warranty and it says upholstery not covered.

Where did you order from? This white leather is horrible for color transfer. Especially in the hot Florida weather and any type of denim I may wear.

Were you able to replace it? Was it easy?
