Description of the problem | While driving, the center console gets extremely hot. The area behind the shifter and also inside the cupholders are effected. I left my watch in the cupholder and when i grabbed it when i was geting out of the car, it was scalding hot. Maybe that would be good in the winter to keep my coffee warm, but it is definitely abnormal. |
