I drive 90 miles before I parked the car in my garage. After a minute of turning off the car, I noticed bright sparks and dense smoke from under the driver's seat. I was able to put down the fire after dumping a lot of water under the seat. At that time the power seats were functional but heated seat was not. I tried to reproduce the issue by starting the car and turning it off multiple times but it did not happen again. I left the car outside the garage overnight and took it to the dealer the following morning, where the dealer found the electric wiring harness burnt out. 1. Issue happened after a minute of turning off the car. 2. Bright sparks and flames with very dense caustic smelling smoke.
