| Description of the problem | I started the truck with the remote start to let it warm up. After around 3 to 5 minutes we went to get in and noticed smoke and a burning smell coming from the back seat. I turned the truck off and inspected the area the smoke was coming from and noticed the insulation was burned from the wire and my back window had cracks over the entire surface. I believe the rear defrost shorted out |
