Burning butt...no fun. Set got way too hot, and could be hazardous.

The driver's side heated seat element had burned both my wife and myself. about 3-4 minutes after it is turned on, it literally fries any sitting on the seat.

problem #1

Jan 052014

Pilot EX-L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 178,000 miles

Driver's seat heater gets so hot even on low setting that it is uncomfortable and possibly a fire hazard. It heats to the point of smelling very hot as if something is melting. I have been unable to use this feature on my Pilot for some time. From my internet search it appears I am not the only one with this problem. It seems to be a manufacturer defect.
