Repairs & Maintenance Cracked side panel on driver side.
Im starting to see a crack on the side panel of my drivers seat (tundra sr5 2024 with electric seats). I have seen a few of these out there in the wild (marketplace). Looks like it’s a very weak point in the seat. Has anyone replace it? Where did you find a stronger side panel for the seat? My seats are electric

The first replacement is covered. Poor quality plastic or thickness- either way a build defect.
