Consumer Description

MY 2007 FORD FOCUS HAS (HAD) HEATED SEATS. LATE WINTER OF 2011, MY DRIVER SEAT WOULD BECOME VERY, VERY HOT, AND I WOULD TURN IT OFF BECAUSE IT WOULD BECOME SO UNCOMFORTABLE. I FOUND OUT THIS FALL THAT THIS HEATED SEAT NO LONGER WORKS. I HAVE CHECKED THE FUSE AND IT IS FINE. THE INDICATOR LIGHT GOES ON WHEN PUSHED, BUT NO HEAT. I WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO HAVE A BURNED SPOT ON THE HEATING PAD. I BELIEVE THAT FORD SHOULD RECALL THIS AS IT IS A HAZARD. YOU COULD BE BURNED BY A HOT SEAT BEFORE IT BURNS OUT. IT COULD START A FIRE. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THIS REPAIRED BY FORD AS THEY HAVE NUMEROUS STYLES OF VEHICLES WITH HEATED SEAT PROBLEMS. PLEASE MAKE THEM REPAIR THIS PROBLEM FOR US OWNERS. I DO NOT HAVE OUT OF POCKET FUNDS TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED BY A DEALSHIP. *TT
