X3 05 Diesel Electric heated seat fire.
Hi all, a couple of weeks ago I turned on the heated drivers seat as I pulled off the drive only a few minutes later noted the temp to the right buttock was much higher than the rest of the surface. I lifted myself up as the heat was to much for even the most harden backsides and found myself confronted with black smoke. I know my car is long out of BMW warranty but out of continued annoyance at constant costly issues with my last 2 X3's I emailed them very bluntly stating what had happened and demanding the seat be repaired ASAP FOC at my local dealer. I expected to be told to go away as is the norm from BMW UK. Shock horror, an email came back with an appology asking me to book the car in to my local dealer ASAP for repairs to be carried out FOC. I thought this a bit strange due to there usual get lost attitude. I called the dealer and with out even seeing the car they ordered the parts and the next day replaced the lower section of the seat. All like brand new and i'm very happy at the service i received for once. Cheers Andrew.
