Description of the problem | I smelled something electrical while driving but i believed it was outside. A day later i happened to look down at the passenger side seat and noticed a small hole forming. The seat warmer malfunctioned and burned through the leather leaving a hole in my brand new seat. I am lucky i noticed this before any more damage was done. *js |
