Heated Seats on the Refreshed 1500AT4 - Not Very Hot??

Jester314 · Mar 27, 2023

I wanted to reach out and see what everyone's thoughts are on the heated seats.

I don't feel like my seats get very hot. I have a VW Atlas (fake leather) and a Ford Explore (Cloth) and both of them, the heated seats will like burn your ass even with jeans on.

Level 3 on the heated seats for the AT4 is like level 1 on my other vehicles. Is this normal? I have never had a vehicle that has had real leather so not sure if this is normal or not.

If you have your control set to auto the system will adjust from level 3 max depending on outside temperature and reduce as the cab warms up, mine work very well and i am north of the 49th parallel.

Yea that I understand, however when i just run it normally and manually press it, it still does not get very hot compared to the other vehicles I have.

I don't have a refreshed but mine will get the "swass" flowing on level 3.

On high mine will get very warm, not burn you kinda hot, but def warm.

Was the same on my 2020 and my 2010 seats

I got a letter from GM about my 22 Ref At4 that was delivered in June 2022 saying that I should make an appointment and get my "cool" blowers installed for the front seats which I was not aware of were missing.

The bulletin is: N222378560 and appears to cover heated and cooled seats and enabling them once the parts are installed. Just in case you want to check if you have any missing parts.
