At Kartal Auto, we specialize in providing world-class services for high-end automobiles, and our recent seat repair and restoration job for the Aston Martin One-77 was no exception. The One-77, known for its performance and luxury, deserves only the best when it comes to care and attention. During our comprehensive inspection of the seats, our team uncovered several issues that needed immediate attention. Here’s a breakdown of the issues found and the solutions we provided to restore these seats to their original, pristine condition
.Issue found
1. Worn Leather and Cracking Upholstery
Issue:
The luxurious leather upholstery of the One-77’s seats had begun to show significant signs of wear, with cracks, discoloration, and surface deterioration. This was especially visible on the seat bolsters, which are prone to friction from getting in and out of the vehicle.
Solution:
Our expert upholstery specialists meticulously restored the leather by first cleaning and conditioning the surfaces. We sourced premium, OEM-grade leather in the original color and texture to match the One-77’s bespoke interior. After carefully reupholstering the affected areas, we applied a protective coating to prevent future wear and ensure long-lasting durability.
2. Sagging and Unstable Seat Cushions
Issue:
The seat cushions had lost their firmness and support, leading to a sagging feel that compromised the comfort and support needed in a hypercar like the Aston Martin One-77.
Solution:
We disassembled the seats and replaced the worn-out foam padding with high-density, ergonomically designed foam. Our team took extra care to restore the cushion’s original shape and firmness to provide optimal support and comfort, ensuring that the owner would feel like they’re sitting in a brand-new seat.
3. Malfunctioning Seat Adjustment Mechanism
Issue:
The seat adjustment mechanism was malfunctioning, making it difficult to find the perfect seating position. The electronic controls for adjusting the seat height, backrest angle, and lumbar support were unresponsive or inconsistent.
Solution:
After diagnosing the issue, we fully examined and repaired the seat adjustment system. Any faulty motors, wiring, or electronic components were replaced with high-quality, OEM parts. The system was recalibrated, and the controls were thoroughly tested to ensure smooth and precise adjustments for maximum comfort and functionality.
4. Broken Lumbar Support
Issue:
The lumbar support function on the driver’s seat had stopped working, preventing the driver from adjusting the lower back support for personalized comfort during long drives.
Solution:
Our team disassembled the seat and found that the lumbar support mechanism had become damaged due to wear and age. We replaced the broken components and reinstalled the lumbar support system to ensure full functionality. The lumbar support was calibrated to provide the correct amount of pressure and adjustability, giving the driver the ideal level of support.
5. Defective Heating and Cooling System
Issue:
The built-in seat heating and cooling system was malfunctioning, with inconsistent temperature control in the driver and passenger seats.
Solution:
We conducted a thorough inspection of the seat’s heating and cooling components, identifying issues with the wiring and heating pads. All faulty parts were replaced, and the system was fully tested to ensure the heating and cooling functions worked flawlessly. The new system provides quick and even temperature regulation for year-round comfort.
