Default Heated seats have the worst switch of any car

I wanted to comment on the bad placement of the on/off control for the heated seats. First there is no indicator light on the dash anywhere to tell if on or off. The placement of the control on the side of the seat also is pretty bad. All other cars have the control where you can see it and adjust them with ease.

The placement does suck! My 02 Superduty is the same way so i'm use to it.

I agree. Since there are no memory positions, whenever my wife drives it she changes the seat and I have to change it back. Consequently we have both accidentally engaged the seat heater. A light on the dash might help, but our butts told us pretty fast.

Amen Brother!! How do you think I feel in FLA when that stupid thing is on? I never know it's on until it's too late and my A** is on fire. Just like the DRL's that's the next fuse I think will have to go.

I'll be happy to trade some real nice unheated seats for your heated seats.

I have a new 2007 purchased about a week ago! My driver seat seems to take a while to heat up, and doesn't seem as warm as other vehicles I previously owned with heated seats. Could there be a problem or does the seat heater require a break-in period

We're not bitchin'. This is a serious discussion of design ergonomics. [8D]
