Heated Seats Issue?? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Hi folks,

I am planning to own a Camry pre-owned. My first car is Altima. The second is going to be Camry. So don't have a whole bunch of knowledge as you guys... So please bear with me and any help would be appreciated.

We visited the dealer yesterday and test drove a 2003 Camry XLE. Everything in the car seem to be working fine except we noticed that the heated seats were not really hot or warm enough to feel comfortable. After switching on the heated seats button for the driver and passenger we noticed that after a 10 minute drive the seats had turned from normal(65F outside) to luke-warm... Is this common or was it just this car???

Thank you in advance!

If it was 90-100 degrees in the car, they would have felt cold when switched on......

I understand what you are saying. The car's temp was normal from the start. Actually in the evening the temp had dropped from 65 to high 50s and the car was cool. But the heated seats weren't as effective as we thought they would be. I have tried heated seats in some other cars and can really feel the warmth/heat.

Just let the dealer know of the issue
