Question about interior problem:

I have a 2003 Max with leather seats that match the outside paint..sort of a silver gray color. The floor matt, on the passenger side, started looking like some sort of emerald green spots were beginning to show and I noticed one small spot on the passenger front seat also. This was several months ago. I thought someone spilled something. Now there are more spots on this same seat and more discoloration in the floor matt. I dont use anything but a wet rag and vacuum to clean the inside. Has anyone a clue to this problem? I haven't brought it up to the dealer's attention yet.

 

hmmm, maybe its mold?
you should try to clean it with a leather care cleaner, and get new floormats??

 

use leather cleaner followed by conditioning lotion

 

did you buy the car used? if you did, they could have dyed the seats and mats to cover up a spill and with you cleaning it, you are removing the dye.

 

Thanks, No it's not mold I'm sure of that. But I will try some cleaner and maybe replace the matt. looks like the problem is just with my car.

 

Car is brand new....will try the cleaner and replace the matt. Thanks

 

my friend works at a dealership and they dont always put in brand new mats with a brand new car, so u could have gotten some that were dyed.

 

Thanks, now we are getting to what could be the source of the problem. Will bring it up to the dealer next visit in 3 months.
