Default Leather winkling on side of passenger seat

What do I have to do if my leather is wrinking around the area that supports the right thigh in the passenger seat of my new RX330? Do I take it to Lexus to allow them to take care of it or do I buy some kind of compound? Let me know, thanks.

Keep your leather conditioned, at least once a month. There's really no preventing the wrinkles, unfortunately. The only other thing you can do is to tell your passenger to stop sliding out of the RX (smashing the edges of the seat) and to jump out instead To be honest, that's what I do on my side to prevent that premature wrinkling I don't have too many passengers, so I don't worry about the other seats.

Default wrinkles

I do the same thing, I step in and out instead of sliding. You get used to it. Leatherique products are simply the best products for keeping your leather soft and supple. Visit their webiste. Other than that preventative measures are the best. I have a 2000 RX300 myself and noticed that the sides wrinkle easily. Just have to be careful.
