Ya the "pleather" isn't leather. Anyone who has it will find out soon enough.

I remember reading of this issue while researching before we bought our GT. I have used 303 on my seats every 30 days since we bought ours and so far have had no problems after two years. I also keep a sunscreen on the windshield when parked and front curtain down while not in use.
I realize that the problem doesn't show up usually until after 3 or 4 years but I was wondering if anyone else has one that old and has managed to not have this problem. If so if they have done anything special?
Guess I will know on mine in another year or two.

After 4 summers, no issues yet. After every trip, I clean both Captain chairs and sofa with a leather cleaner and protector. Also bought a dashboard cover. Iggy turned me on to that. It isn't a perfect fit but protects dash from our 2 Shelties.

I have done nothing to mine other than wipe up minor spills and clean any dirty spots. I'm getting some wear on the driver's seat, but everything else is fine. 5th season.

I am starting to see damage on drivers chair and the free standing chair. We have had our 2012 just over 4 years but stayed in it about 5 months a year since. I assume I can have new seat covers ordered from FR.

My couch is in poor shape. I contacted the manufacturer, Williamsburg Furniture, and they told me they had problems with about three colors and they have discontinued those. They are sending me fabric samples and will sell me new covers for around $200. Much cheaper than new furniture. I'll keep you posted.
