hi,

driving for 25 years. Never had this problem on any car before. Is it easy to repair?

Thanks

That looks like your carpet is worn out from the position you hold your right foot in? Only real repair is a whole new carpet (usually one piece for entire car)

Is that a Ford by any chance?? Some older models had a VIN plate cover in that spot if I remember correctly. If you wanted you could remove a similar size patch from under the rear seat bench and do a good enough diy job.

That's it in a nutshell. There's normally enough carpet hidden under there for a decent enough repair. A new carpet is silly money.
