It'll go away. Mist it with plain water. Get a towel wet and wring it out mostly dry. not dripping. Put it over the seat and take a hair dryer and heat the towel up well. Pick it up and you should magically watch the dent disappear.

The above post is right. Mine have car seat indents but they go away after a couple days.

I have had success with using a heat gun on the lowest setting held about 8" away from the indentions. It removed creases in my drivers seat of my Ram and the creases in the bucket seats of my wifes Honda Odyssey. Took about 15 minutes of going in slow motions in different directions and using a microfiber cloth to smooth the creases back into the leather, but it came out looking brand new.

Just be very careful not to get it too close to the leather or you could damage the leather.

I'll give another endorsement to the advice to get it a little wet and then add low heat. I used a washcloth with near boiling water followed by gentle application of heat from a hairdryer on the leather seats in our subaru to remove carseat indents before trade in and it worked well. doesn't take too much water and be careful about too much heat (i.e. a heat gun is o.k. but be careful, hair dryer is better)

Thanks man. Not sure if moisture got in it but the seat feels bit crunchy as well when pressed.will the heat help that?

A good cleaning and some heat as others have said and you will be fine

Don't use a heat gun. They get way too hot, you'll cook the leather. Use a hair dryer. you almost can't hurt it with a hair dryer. You can smoke the leather and burn it with a heat gun, plus if you touch the tip to anything it'll melt burn on contact.

Hard to say but the point of 'steaming' the leather through moisture and heat might help. I was thinking more about my experience and recalled I actually used an iron and a wet towel - get the towel moist and then lay it on the seat and use the iron to heat and steam the seat. You need to be very careful to never touch the iron to anything directly etc. but that was what ultimately worked best for me.

A professional auto upholstery shop can fix that pretty easily, they us a special steam iron designed for leather.

I was just about to write that, use a damp towel and an iron with steam on.

Or you could just get someone pretty big and fat to ride around in your passenger side for a while, the combination of moisture and heat from their *** will naturally steam it away. Of course, it will mean you'll have to buy more gas

Then you might have to remove the butt cheese stank. I think I'd rather have his dirty, dented seat.

Reminds me of the time I was a teenager. A guy I knew (not really a friend) and me were riding around and picked up a couple of girls. I can't remember what transpired but whatever the case he ended up dropping them off without any action. When they got out of the car, one of them had pissed all over his cloth rear seat

Clean the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap (hand soap works). Dry it with a towel then use some leather care/moisturizer on it.
Keep in mind leather is skin. Treat it like your skin, and remember that water dries it out just like your hands. Clean it and keep it moisturized, and it will look/feel great for a long time.

I've been using Armor All Leather Care Gel for several years now (on my Rams and Jeeps). It cleans and moisturizes at the same time, so you can skip the water/soap step unless the seat is really nasty for some reason. The kicker is it's surprisingly cheap and smells good too. I stumbled onto it because the expensive stuff I was previously using was out of stock. I bought a bottle of the Armor All to hold me over until the "good stuff" was back in stock, but I never bothered using the other stuff again.

I always bought seat protectors specifically designed for car seats. They have strategically placed padding and do a good job. I would look into buying one.

It rubs the lotion on its skin. It does this whenever it is told. It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again!
