Leather seat help

I have FX4 black sport leather seats and the bottom center section is "loose". In other words, in the center of the vinyl center piece, it's raised because of stretching. Has anyone had this problem? Any solutions? I'm not that eager to run to the dealer. Thanks

It has been relatively cold(in the 30's this weekend). It's still unsettling as I only have 9,000mi and my wife's x-type has 27,000mi and never happens to her seats. I will keep what you said in mind and check it when it warms up. Thanks for the response.

also keep in mind that the center sections of the FX4 is vinyl and not leather. Look at your sticker or on the ford sight, they are leather trimed not complete leather. Regardless I believe when the weather warms up you should be ok. You may want to try some leather conditioner...I use it too even on the vinyl to keep it all flexiable due to the heat and all here. Hope this helps and good luck.

Thanks for the reply TX. I know the center piece is vinyl though, and I have been using Armor All leather on the whole seat. I'll keep on eye on it when it warms up to 60 later this week.
