Heated seat problem!

Maybe this isn't the right place for this, but here goes:

It's getting chilly in the morning around these parts, and so it goes without saying that I reach for the trusty 'lectric butt-warming device button. Sometimes it stays on as long as 8 or 9 minutes, but then shuts off, but I have a 25-minute drive to work. When I try to turn it back on, it will only stay on about another minute at best, but usually shuts right back off. most of the time the light just flashes for a second and goes back off when I lift my finger. Anyone had this issue? The passenger posterior-warmer stays on until turned off or the car is turned off.

i would have it looked at might be a problem with the heating unit sending a signal to the computer saying DONT BURN THE CAR UP! so it shuts itself off.

Yeah..not normal. Mine both stay on until the car is turned off or I turn it off.

Have it checked out!
