Consumer Description

I SMELLED SOMETHING ELECTRICAL WHILE DRIVING BUT I BELIEVED IT WAS OUTSIDE. A DAY LATER I HAPPENED TO LOOK DOWN AT THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT AND NOTICED A SMALL HOLE FORMING. THE SEAT WARMER MALFUNCTIONED AND BURNED THROUGH THE LEATHER LEAVING A HOLE IN MY BRAND NEW SEAT. I AM LUCKY I NOTICED THIS BEFORE ANY MORE DAMAGE WAS DONE. *JS
