Side panel for driver seat popped off!

[Alset_Boston]

I recently discovered the side panel on my driver seat is loose! It appears the rivet came apart.
Has anyone had this issue before and have a simple fix?
It would be great to hear your insight!
Thanks

Same thing happened to me. There’s a plastic rivet underneath that popped out. I was going to just zip tie it, but found the plastic river on the carpet and popped it back it. I used the passenger seat as a reference to see what was missing. Hope that helps.

SC will fix that under warranty. Just ask them to use the old type screws instead of the pins they use now (which is why that separated). Once mine was fixed with screws, I never had the issue again. Those that get fixed with pins are inevitably back at the SC for the same issue.

True, except there was about a 5 week wait to get an appointment at my local SC and about a 30min drive each way, and I was able to fix it myself in about 30 seconds. Good tip on the screw fix. Next time I’m going to the SC I’ll see if I can get them to swap the pins for screws.

Thanks! I’m searching for that rivet. Zip tie good call.

Good advice. I’ll try this also. Tight area underneath but always a solution.

This is mine on the passenger side. It has been like this since day 1, over 1.5 years ago. The panels seems designed to slap on fast but not necessarily properly, which is a design problem. Inexcusable quality at this price point.
