I had the same problem with my seat on my 07 last year. I was covered and got a new seat back cover. Took the dealer 5 hours to replace it. The seat cover does not come with the holes for the head rest, they had to cut those at the dealer ship. Mine was covered. Took 5 weeks to get the replacement cover. But it was replaced and I did not pay a penny.

Yeah I decided to detail my car over the weekend and discovered i have the same issue. I have an 08 w/ red and the seat back lower left side has creases which i consider normal but they have the beginnings of cracks which i was very unhappy to see. I use meguiers leather conditioner. I dont know what else to do. glad I spent the $$$ to get the red leather interior of my dreams.

Must be dealer-specific. I have the same wear in the same area (lower left outside area of upper seat back with creases and wear down to ruff surface of leather). I also have an area on the lower cover where the color is rubbing off the seats. I stopped by the dealershio today expecting them to hit me with the "normal wear and tear", but was pleasantly suprised as they ordered a new upper and lower leather for my drivers side seat, under the factory warranty. I would suggest trying another dealership if you still have a warranty and get the "normal wear and tear schpeal......

How about a update. I went to a different dealer today. This time I went to one of the bigger ones around. They actully took the time to take a picture and email ford. The short of the story is I have a new cover being ordered, expected delivery in one week. I'll up date once it's installed. Anyways it's being taken care of. ;-)
