The heating elements in the seat which heat the seat when turned on (seat heaters) caught fire and burned through the seat, almost burning my backside. car was stationary. warming up the engine for about 8 minutes in the morning before driving to work.
Faulty seat heater in drivers seat caused fire inside the vehicle. it is a 2003 volkswagen eurovan. it was warming in the driveway of our home because of recent ice storm. we managed to put the fire out and it was contained to the one seat but the seat is badly damaged and the interior of van smell of burned wiring. *tr
