    This may sound weird...

    Anyone had any issues with the cloth seat bolsters wrinkling or deforming? I have only 650 miles on my 2010 and I noticed my passenger seat bolster (closest to passenger door) already has a wicked crease (vertical deformation). Basically the best way I can describe it is the way a cloth seat bolster looks in a really heavy person's car over time.

    A buddy of mine rode in the truck for maybe 2-3 hours total time but he weighs about 325-340lbs. Could the seats be so cheaply made that they couldn't handle that? Was he just too heavy? Anyone else have these issues with their cloth seat bolsters?

    I tried massaging the bolster to smooth it out but no luck. It's almost as if the foam separated or something...
