Consumer Description
SEAT WARMER BURNED A HOLE THROUGH THE SEAT AND BURNED THROUGH MY CLOTHING TO MY SKIN. I REACHED BACK TO SEE WHAT WAS WRONG AND BURNED MY HAND. I HAD SMELLED SMOKE BUT IT WAS TOO LATE BY THE TIME I FIGURED OUT WHAT HAD HAPPENED. IT COULD HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS IF I HAD BEEN ON A BUSY ROAD WITH MY SON AND IT STARTED A FIRE. I WAS LUCKY I WAS IN OUR SMALL TOWN AND WAS ABLE TO GET PULLED OVER QUICKLY. WHILE THERE SO NO SERIOUS INJURY, THIS COULD HAVE ENDED MUCH WORSE.
