Tonight, when I arrived home I noticed a spot on my driver seat. Closer inspection showed that my pants burned into the seat. I just bought this car at the end of October, not even a month has gone by!!!!! Any recommendations ????? My jeans burned into the car seat....
Eh is this a joke? Did your backside not feel it if it was overheated? Or did you sit on some food item (starch) earlier and that got baked onto the seat?

I have had that happen in my tan interior. new unwashed jeans will rub off the color easy. Just time did this - maybe a week of in and out of the car in my situation. I cleaned up that mess and wear jeans that were washed 20 times The seats get hot but not hot enough to burn you. We end up shutting them off after 8- 10 min. They do take the chill out quickly.

Are you sure it's the heated seats? Demin will rub off the colour onto the material (one reason why you don't wear jeans in a light-coloured interior with leather seats). I have my heated seats running all winter and have not experienced such an issue. Even with my dark grey seats, I can see some colour on the seat bolsters but that's easily taken care off with a light rub of a moist towel or even a Magic Eraser (But be gentle!!)
