I was driving my car and the seat started getting hot. I checked to make sure the switch was off. It was, but I turned it on then off, just to make sure. The seat heater stayed on and got hotter, and I started to smell something burning. I stopped, got out, and checked under the seat but couldn't see anything under there. I was close to home, but had to roll my windows down the smell was so bad. . . And the seat was unpleasantly hot! my husband drove it the next day and the problem was still there. He pulled the fuse this morning. . . I'll see if that fixed the issue temporarily.
