Those of you with ventilated seats...
#41
Just took my '12 SH-AWD Advance into the shop because I didn't feel the ventilated seats were working properly. I told them when I made the appointment that I could hear the fan running, just didn't really "feel" anything. This coming after I drove a '12 Yukon Denali with cooled seats and had to turn it down because it got so cold so fast. Dealer's response was essentially "the fan either runs or it doesn't, that's about it." So, I can't say that the ventilated seats are all that they've cracked up to be, at least in my particular car.
Both seats on my 2012 TL advance had stopped blowing air; I check under the seat with a flashlight to find a torn plastic bag like contraption . The bag has a wire mesh and contains a small blower fan, which still works, but all air is just blown out of the leak(s) and not into the bottom of the seat.
The bag bag seemed to be made of some thin rubber like membrane that has disintegrate at numerous places.
Ironically, the 4-year warranty just expired 8 months ago.
Any thoughts ?
