Any chance getting it covered under warrenty? At that kind of mileage I would think the dealer would do something?

i am having the same problem with mine. it's been holding off though, since for winter i bought a $9 pair of imitation ralliart mats from ebay to keep salt and crap off my real mats.

i've never seen such fragile floormats as the stockers though.

Are you wearing golf cleats while driving? How the heck do you rub a hole in the mats before 4000 miles?!?

My stock mats lasted 50,000 miles.

I knew that this is what would eventually happen with mine, so I immediately put thick all-weather mats (black rubber) on the floor in both the driver's side and the passenger side. My original car mats have yet to have a shoe touch them.
