The clips in the front of my seat cover on my 2019 have come undone twice, they are impossible to put back without taking the whole cover off. Took it to the dealership to have them fix it, they came undone again after a couple weeks. I probably need a completely new seat cover, just haven't had time to take it back in.

I have the same exact problem. Driver seat clips came off within a few days of getting my truck (2019 SCREW). After spending 3 minutes twisting my wrist in unusual ways to get them clipped back on, they came off again the next day. Will eventually take it to the dealer to fix.

Mine had a small tear in the leather passenger seat at time of delivery. Dealer called in a leather guy, made it worse. Dealer refused to cover under warranty. Said I should go to another dealer. I was a bit upset. Gave them a bad review through Ford new purchase survey. They did not care. New seat cover is $500 retail. Could have resolved the entire thing. But no. Dealer sucked.
You can get whole takeoff sets on ebay for cheap if you still need them from vendors like shelby, roush, etc.

Bringing up an old topic, but did you get this resolved? Any info on doing it yourself as my dealer is quite far away

Had this issue with my platinum too. Must be a common Ford issue. Would like to find a solution I can do at home. Just easier than getting to my dealer. Not recaro.

Yes, ended up going to the dealership and they replaced it with a new seat cover as the clips were broken.

Thanks, It looks like my clips are fine but can't seem to figure out how to attach them properly. I am assuming I might have to take the cushion out. Or, just plan a day trip and get the dealer to do it.

I had it happen quite a bit, it's frustrating. The dealer tried their "fix" over and over but it just slipped off again in two days.

I took self-tapping screws and stuck them through the clips. $0.50 and 20k later no issues

Call me slow....but I can't seem to figure out where the clips attach. I am a big guy (6' 7") so looking under the seat is a bit of a chore, but I thought it would be more obvious. It appears that you have to invert the hook somehow based on how it is hanging. Do you have to take the seat out, is there a way to just take the butt cushion off to do this. I have been searching from some type of assembly diagram but can't find one. Any help would be appreciated.
