Driver seat was the first to give me this problem. it unraveled around the plastic ring located right under the head rest. Took it in for warranty repair. The same thing happen to the passenger seat with in a month of time.

This is a real annoying issue with the 02-04 Acura RSX (Leather Seats). If you know how to use a ratchet then this is a somewhat easy fix. Just time consuming. Take the seat out of the car, unbolt things until you can take off the bottom cushion. Then bring the bottom cushion to a local upholster and it should only take them 20-30 minutes.

The exact same thing happened to mine. Right in the middle of the bottom portion of the driver's seat. WTF?
