Do New Fabric Car Seats Need Seat Covers?
1 Answers
Generally not needed. Here are the specific reasons: 1. Odor issues: Odor is closely related to temperature. Higher temperatures cause more odor molecules to disperse into the air, making the smell stronger. Therefore, car interiors exposed to intense sunlight can reveal substandard seat covers. Car seats are already not very breathable, and adding seat covers can worsen the odor problem. 2. Safety perspective: Seat covers can interfere with the deployment of side airbags. Airbags are not designed to penetrate an additional layer of seat covers, so in an emergency, the effectiveness of an airbag needing to penetrate an extra layer would be relatively worse.
