Description of the problem	July 30, 2018 while in parking space i turned on ignition and heard a mild pop, the looking towards passenger seat i saw white smoke rising between chair and window and smoke coming from under seat. It smelled as if doming was burning. I turned ignition off. Smoke stopped. I did not see anything under the chair. I checked movement of chair and it was ok. I called toyota: no idea of cause and claimed no recalls. I mentioned what i saw on line, to no avail. I observed 6/2/2016 recall: 16v396000 and 11/19/2014 # 14v743000. I would like these heating wires on both sides to be disconnected to prevent possible fire while driving. Thank you

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
