I was using my heated seats this morning on my way to work. I set the driver's side seat on the low setting and within a few minutes my left thigh began to burn. I looked down and saw smoke coming from the seat and noticed the leather beginning to discolor. I immediately turned the heat off and snuffed out the smoke with my fingers. I am now in the process of notifying Honda.

4 Front Seat Heater/cooler problem of the 2007 Honda Accord

Failure Date: 02/08/2007

2007 Honda Accord lx. Delivery taken in December 2006. Front driver's seat has become extremely uncomfortable to sit in and drive. Lumbar support "wings" are extremely hard causing severe pain and numbness in my lower back (pain and numbness last for a time after I get out of car) if I sit and drive over 15 minutes. I visited dealership, told nothing they could do and to buy a lumbar roll for my seat. Came home and called customer service and I was informed that "a tech says" the foam can in fact become very hard under cold weather conditions as being experienced in massachusetts in 2007. Was told to go out and buy a lumbar support pillow that inflates and put it in car only when I drive and run the heater before I get in for a while. Problem should disappear when weather warms up, but will continue during cold weather. This is totally unacceptable, car cannot be garaged to protect against cold weather. How can I drive this car in the future winters with this existing problem?.

5 Front Seat Heater/cooler problem of the 2003 Honda Accord

Failure Date: 05/04/2006

2003 Honda Accord. The seat heater shorted and burned a hole in my leather seat after about 10 minutes. I felt burning on my leg and stopped the car to discover what was happening. I took it to the dealership the next day and the service manager said he had never seen it but that they would replace it even though he did not believe my extended warranty would cover it. He ordered a new seat bottom but did not order the seat heating element. Now they are ordering that and I have to make yet another appointment when that part comes in. If I had not felt the burn and continued driving, my seat could have burst into flames!!! I am complaining about the faulty unit - I am not complaining about my local Honda dealership.
