The plastic inserts at the top of the seat are coming apart due to the plastic tabs that hold them together are braking. I was driving home when one of the plastic pieces fell out completely. I have noticed three out of the four are coming apart so I took it to Mazda and they said they would cover it under warranty, but they are seriously taking their time. Just wanted everyone with the Recaro seats to keep an eye on this.

I had the same thing happen to me last week. It just fell out and the clips in it was broken. I ended up going to mazda and it was covered under warranty. Took 3 days and it came in and I was able to install it myself.
