Accord 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission

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.
