premature leather upholstery wear

Even though I've only had vehicle for 9 months, the inferior leather upholstery is beginning to wear through on the middle left-hand portion of the driver's seat back. I may drive a lot, but I don't get in and out of the car more than most people. I kind of expected problems with leather seats. I didn't want leather seats, but Honda, like most manufacturers loves to bundle feature packages. If you want the moon roof or certain other features, you have to get the leather. I didn't want the cursed leather upholstery, and now I have to deal with the consequences.

Leather upholstery is not a luxury, it is a burden.
