I made inquiries to get mine done under warranty - they weren't having any of it. Couldn't even get them to accept a serious mismatch of external paint colour (between metal and plastic parts) was a warranty fault: they (dealer)said it should have been pointed out sooner by the first owner!

You can buy the bits of the seat separately. Really expensive though - just look it up on ePer!

FWIW, the 350Z that I got rid of quite recently can suffer the same thing (mine was OK). Nissan have replaced whole seats for this very reason. Alfa should be doing the same. IMO it's a quality issue.
