Don't feel like making a new thread but I figured maybe this is just another weird quirk.
Well, did the seat heat itself up ...... or did the phone heat the seat up...??

Was your car locked ........ did you smell the seat ....... maybe some hot chick was sitting your car .......

Ha ha.

Well, the seat was warm in more than just where the phone had been sitting.

Also, I've noticed a few times recently when my seat would feel "hot" like the warmer was on, though it wasn't.

Maybe I'm just imagining it, though.

Did you pee? The seat warmers coming on always seem like I peed so maybe it is the other way around.

... Are you suggesting he smell the seat to determine if a hot chick was sitting in his locked car?
