I spilled bleach inside of my car. It is black leather. Can it be repaired?

Well I mean its bleach so Im not sure. If you could it would take awhile tho.
You would be best served to call the dealer and ask if they have any solutions. Bleach damage is hard to mitigate. Hope the dealer has a good answer for you. Post back what you learn!
I think you may have to have that panel of your seat redone but your dealer will tell you if that is the case.
There are leather dyes. Do you own the car or lease it? If leased, definitely contact them and ask what to do.
I aired out my car for about 2 hours and it dried up. The color is still black (yeah) but the area hardened slightly . I purchased a leather restoration Nu-life in black. Keeping my fingers crossed. It does not arrive until Thursday so I will keep yall posted. Thanks
I also found bleach had leaked onto my car seat. It's "softex" (Toyota) so not leather-leather. The dealer suggested diluting it as much as possible by spraying with water and using a shop-vac to suck it up, repeatedly.
My concern is more about the electronics in the car (heated and cooled seats) but they feel that it should be ok if it's not doused with water and vacuumed up immediately. If it leaves a stain, their only suggestion is to reupholster that seat.
