BunWarmers
As the temps. are changing outside, I find myself (ok my wife REALLY wants me to post this) using the heated seats, more 'n' more. Question is as follows.....
After startup, and we head out on our way, w/ the push of the buttons the seats get warm. Afterwards I shut the engine off, and do our errands, then climb back in the truck only to start it up and feel that the seats are STILL on ('cause they didn't get turned off before exiting the truck.) So, is this normal for them to stay on even AFTER turning key off and restarting?, Her Explorer Limited seats turn off as expected.
Do I dare worry about this, it's really not a problem, more or less just curious if this is protocol on these trucks?

(captains chairs ~~~~ If that makes a difference on my question.)
Key on, warming button pushed, seats heat up...
Key OFF, re-enter vehicle, key ON... seats warm up from previous push of the button. (Normal ????)

Mine stay on until you puch the button to toggle em back off. This is a little bit of a pain since I can not easily see if the pass seat is off or on.
On mine when the truck is off the seats are off, regardless of if the seats are on or off.

it is a great feature for then to stay on at restart, especially with remote start, your seats are nice and toasty when ya hope in.
