ml 270 heated seat nearly caught fire
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was driving my ml270 the other day when I decided to put on my heated seat to ease my sore back.After about 2-3 minutes the seat got extremley hot and started to smoulder.I stopped and got out the smell of burning was terrible and panic set in.I had a bottle of water in the car which i poured over the base of the seat which seemed to extinguish the smouldering and smoke.maybe not the brightest thing to do as i dont know how the Heated seat operates.(voltage ect...)There is a tiny scorch mark on the cushion base but not anything you would notice.Has anyone had similar problems with this?
