Motor Trend AquaShield Waterproof Front Car Seat Covers

F · High PFAS

Skip, waterproof seat covers almost certainly use PFAS-based water-repellent coating, and the brand discloses nothing.

Motor Trend AquaShield's waterproof durability rating suggests a water-repellent coating (water-repellent coating) finish, which in automotive textiles is typically PFAS-based. The brand makes no PFAS claim, certification, or material transparency statement.

What we don’t know

This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 45% confidence. It is not a lab result.

No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.

The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.

Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
