So far, no, it's been a few weeks for me already. Did they make sure to replace the foam underneath the trim? The bubbling was a result of the foam separating from the trim, which allowed the crease to form. If done properly, I think the foam would be stuck to the trim so no bubble. Just my guess.

I'm not sure if they replaced the foam also but I'm heading up to 7500 miles and my next oil change so I'll be sure to ask when I go in.

Is this only happening to early production G's? My seat still looks fine but then again, I don't even have 3K miles on the car yet and I got it in March08.

I got mine Feb08. Fresh off the truck, still had the wheel covers on it and this still happened. I'm going to bring mine back for the 2nd time. The bubble is starting to reappear again. I'll have to tell them to swap out the foam underneath I guess.

get back to us a few weeks later. mine came back after like 2.5 weeks. I still needa set up an appt with Infiniti to have them look at it again. I'm guessing since you saw it was a 1400 dollar job you saw the sheet that showed what work they performed. Did it mention exactly what they replaced?
