Default Dreaded Sagging Seats

I'm reading on this and other boards that folks have had problems with the seats sagging towards the rear of the bottom cushion after a few thousand miles. Have any of you with S-line cars (and seats) experienced that problem? And if so, what is your dealer's and AoA's response? Are they acknowledging that a problem even exists? Or am I just worrying too much??

Default Mine started pretty quickly, but has not gotten worse...I can live with it.

Not really bad...just a little in the drivers seat. It doesnt sag anymore than a slightly worn leather seat would. It started around 1500 miles but has not gotten any worse. It really isnt noticeable or a problem.

Default my dealer is fixing it

They took one look at the seat - agreed it was unacceptable and got on the phone to somebody(? AofA ? Germany). End of the story is that replacement leather is being sent from europe and the saggy part of the seat will be replaced when it arrives.

Default Does anyone NOT have the problem at all?

What seems to be the leathers that have the issue and those that don't? Or is it just random? Are folks with s-line seats finding it's a problem too?
