Front Seat Heater/cooler problems of the 2004 Chevrolet Suburban

2004 chevy seat heater caught on fire. Called chevy they won't do anything.

This problem concerns a 2004 Chevrolet Suburban. The seat heater switch, located above the driver's door armrest, turns itself on when the car is operating. The heated seat becomes extraordinarily hot rapidly and it is difficult to turn off - every bump and jar in the road turns the light and the seat back on. The light's location which indicates the operation of the heated seats is difficult to see as well - especially when the sun is strong & I'm wearing sunglasses. Looking down and away from the road and traffic is fairly dangerous. This distraction could easily evolve into an accident as the driver is constantly trying to turn the heated seat off. I have had this item "repaired" once, yet the problem continues. The most memorable moment was trying to drive in a torrential rainstorm on the interstate. I pulled over for safety before I tried to turn off the light. The minute I pulled back onto the interstate, the heated seat turned itself back on and stayed on for the next 250 miles. I know I am not the only person with a 2004 Suburban that suffers from this problem. We have taken the fuse out of the car that controls the heated seats, but that also affects the ability to readjust the seat position for the individual drivers. The heated seat distraction combined with the location of the switch are definitely a safety issue and should be repaired.
