Driver's seat heater felt very hot in one spot. This continued for several weeks before the seat heater stopped working. I have heard of other incidents where there were burn marks in the seat, but I this case there appears to be none. I contacted daimler Chrysler which refused to do anything despite the fact that this problem occured two years ago and was repaired at my expense.
