Front Seat Heater/cooler Problems of GMC Envoy

Front passenger seat caught on fire from the seat heater. The vehicle parked and turned off. It was parked in a high school parking lot while my daughter was in school. We contacted GMC, but they said it there was nothing they could do. There was something that went wrong for it to just catch fire. Can you help us in anyway at all.

Me and my fellow employees dumped snow on and under the seat from as far,away as we could till the smoke calmed down. To get the fire out. I am so grateful I was not driving or there was no person sitting on the seat at the time could of caused me to wreck myself or others. On my drive home could not use the heat due to the fumes being to strong with the windows up and heat on had to drive with no heat and windows down 40 minutes with the temps in the teens.
