Description of the problem	I lease a 2004 jeep grand cherokee with heated leather seats. Earlier this year the driver side heater went out then i noticed that just the lower back heater came on. One day in february after driving for about an hour and 1/2 i got home and tried to take off my sweatshirt but could not as it was melted to my cell phone case. At first i did not know what had happened then upon later investigation i noticed a burn whole in my car seat that ran up what was apparently the heater wire. I am a paraplegic and if it was not for the cell phone case i could have been burned. My concern is for others like me and due to the severity of the heat which could melt a sweat shirt and a phone case that it potentially could ignite clothing. *jb
