Consumer Description

WHEN TURNING ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT HEATER IT GOT EXTREMELY HOT. MOST RECENTLY IT ACTUALLY BURNED THE SEAT FOAM AND BEGAN TO SMOKE. I WILL NOT USE IT ANYMORE FOR FEAR OF A FIRE OR POSSIBLE INJURY. HONDA IS VERY AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE AND HAS INSTRUCTED THE DEALERSHIP TO IGNORE AS IF IT DOES NOT EXIST. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT MUST BE ADDRESSED. I REALIZE NOTHING LAST FOREVER BUT THIS SHOULD HAVE A SAFETY FUSE INSTALLED TO PREVENT INJURY. THANK YOU *TR
