Good Morning everyone,

I just purchased a 2006 XC90 with only 16k miles on it. However it seems that these were a pretty rough 16k miles, as the plastic trim around the drivers seats is cracked and broken (right above the seat controls). Anyone with any experience with replacing this? I hope I don't have to replace the whole seat. Thanks in advance.

Not too good of a design build.. You hit the controls mostly every time getting in and out of the vehicle. My trim around my controls on my 05 seems to be a rubber material and won't crack but it does look like it's seen it share of rough miles as well... Can't even put back to black on it. Looks like hell.... Good Luck...

I have the same problem - the seat trim above the power control is cracked and makes a loud noise when I enter/exit the vehicle. I try to be careful whenever I enter/exit so as not to put too much undue stress on the plastic, but it doesn't seem to help. Any suggestions/fixes/replacements?
