Seat destroyed by dog

[Glen959]

My 11 month old German Shepherd destroyed my front seat top after leaving him alone in car for 10 minutes. Dog mode did not work lol! It’s our fault for leaving him alone for the first time. We have an upholstery person to repair it. Looking for advice to get the material. Would prefer the same material Tesla used. If I get some upgraded leather will have to do both seats so it matches. Any advice is much appreciated.

Find a totaled car and buy a driver‘s seat. Probably the best and easiest option.

Wow

Wow! So sorry to see that. Maybe Tesla can sell you the material?

I once had neighbors who had a German Shepherd dog that repeatedly bit holes in the tires of their riding lawnmower. It was a mean dog.

Our friends had their Great Dane rip the rear passenger door apart and chunked the rear seat in their Subaru. Visiting the right salvage yard got a new seat and a door panel for not much $. Tesla likely $$$ But beware the state of the seatbelt tensioner.

Just replace the entire seat at that point

Check ebay or a dismantler, plenty salvaged cars to source a seat from.

I'd first train/discipline the dog and then replace/fix the seat-otherwise ............

Here’s one. Maybe they would be willing to let one front seat go.

You should say seat eaten by dog

Why would you not purchase the Tesla Dog Protector?

I'd go the totaled route and find a mint front seat.

My wife damaged her seat, and the seat base cover could be replaced seperate, maybe the back cover also can?
Mobile service came to her office to replace only the cover.

File an insurance claim and have Tesla send you a new one!

 

[Sambub]

I think he should train the dog to fix the seat.

get rid of the dog?

Yeah not sure that’s the answer. Hard to imagine the dog did That much damage in the noted 10 minutes.
