Heated Seats

I have an 08 Convertivle GT. I wonder if everyones heated seats go off after a few minutes and you keep having to turn them on? I don't get this at all! I have owned quite a few cars with this feature but this is the only one that has ever just turned off after a few minutes! Anything I can do? Is this normal?

Thanks!

Johnathan

I think they auto shutoff after 10min. Mine shutoff so I assume its just normal. Take care.

Thanks y'all. The paint is the reason I drive this thing off the lot!! I had a BMW and seen this car and had to have it! It's a chameleon, purple, green, & blue with metallic flakes. It looks amazing when it's really cleaned up.

I like the chrome myself.

Hello LuvMy08StangGT,

That’s one awesome looking ride! There is a 10 minute “timeout” on the heated seats. If this is happening much quicker, you should visit your Ford dealer.
