Seats: front assembly: seat heater/cooler
Summary
Some customers may complain that the passenger-side seat warmer is slow to get warm, compared with the driver-side seat warmer. Following a change to the seat weight sensor, urethane pads were added to the passenger-side seat cushion to improve seating comfort. Due to the addition of the urethane pads (which were not installed on the driver-side seat), it takes longer for the passenger-side seat to warm up.to eliminate this concern, the heater wattage for the passenger-side seat warmer has been increased. Also, the coupler, box (seat warmer control unit) has been changed to cope with the increased wattage.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 17 complaints in the seats category.
