News release that Toyota dealers stop sealing 2013 and 14 Toyota Camrys as well as 5 other vehicle styles due to the flame retardant materials in the heated seats are not approved by the fda. My concern is does this flame retardant material give off a vapor or fume when the seat heater is operated. I am diagnosed as multiple chemical sensitive and my eyes burn or are irritated, as well as I experience breathing irritation when the seats are operational. I have stopped using the seats since the news release (last 2 days) but still notice milder irritation. I have noticed this since around October 2013, which would be the start of cooler weather in colorado. Is a chemical vapor produced, does it infiltrate the car interior?.
