Heated seat issues...

Post by Tryingitout » Wed Feb 05, 2020 5:19 pm

Has anyone ever had a wet heated seat issue? It literally soaks my pants when I use the heated seat. The cooled part is fine. Just when the heated feature is on and I don’t mean swet I mean ring my pants out soaked. Anyone ever had this issue ?

The seats can't generate moisture on their own... Somehow your seats got wet and soaked up some water.

Turn both seats on the high level heat and let them bake out the moisture.

I've never had this issue - and my heated seats are on for half the year up north here. I've also never heard of anyone else with your issue. :o

I hear ya makes no sense. Truck is brand new and I park inside. Only about 850kilometers on it. Dealership took it apart today and the foam was soaked..... no idea why or how. dried it out and put it back together and told me it’s good to go. I’ve never even had a drink in it yet so impossible that anything got spilt on it.....
Makes no sense to me. Floor/ carpet all dry underneath

They're electric, so it's ass sweat or you have a leaky sunroof (if you have one).

well how long after you turn it on does it get wet?

i could be sitting on the heat seater for a few minutes and ill start to sweat and not notice it until i start moving around or get out.

throw a contractor trash bag over the seat and see if its you or seat side.

Typically within the first minute of it being on. They dried the foam out and replaced the leather and put it back together. Tried it today no issues but we will see if it happens again..... just weird
