Has anyone else had the seat cushion separate from the plastic pan? So far it is just the front that has come loose. I can see what looks like a line of glue on the plastic pan. I will have to take a picture next time I use the tractor.

Use a good plastic epoxy and glue it. Then buy a cordura Durafit seat cover.

Outdoor seats are usually foamed in place, you might not have much luck finding an adhesive to glue it to your seat pan due to all the movement of the foam.

Gorilla tape and seat cover.

Yes Sir, same issue on my L3901. In my case the back has separated from the pan. Called my dealer here in SC (out of warranty), but his shop mechanic suggested the 3M 90 Contact Cement (Spray Adhesive). The Mechanic mentioned that a lot of customers had the same issue with Tractors built in 2018-2021. Will give it a try this weekend and get a nice seat cover after I get it glued up.

Let me know how it works out for you.
