Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Both front driver and passenger electric heated seats switch is too easily to inadvertently bump into the "on" position by driver/passenger legs. Ford needs to redesign a relocation or retrofit kit to move the switch or change the momentary on/off switch to a different type of switch. This condition has made me pull off the side of the road many of times to let the seat cool down which takes a while... Especially during the summer months. This situation creates an unexpected sudden heating of the seat and can make the operator very uncomfortable. Additionally, i had pull over as fast as i could leaving the truck at times in a vulnerable lane of traffic. Please have someone from ford call me at 210-323-8037 or email me at altonlee@satx. Rr. Com for additional information. *nm
