I can't tell you how many times I noticed my *** cooking this summer and noticed that my seat warmer was engaged by accident, probably with a water bottle. Should be in a different place.

I sure would agree. Cumbersome to engage when you want on too. The Platinums also have the seat cooling combined with the seat heat switch and its very hard to determine selections with out taking your eyes off the road. Nissan could have done better with this design!

 

I found I had to memorize the exact location of the ***** in my Platinum and exactly how many clicks are required in which direction to reach each desired cooling/heating setting. This system really annoys my wife when she is driving. Could have been designed a little better.

 

People will literally find anything to complain about...

 

There are a few of us that still think full time attention should be devoted while driving. And also looking out for heartless souls cell texting while in motion. The seat heating switches are irritating , their use while driving is just plain distracting, and could be a safety issue.

 

Anyone else find the accelerator extremely difficult and distracting to reach while driving? They put it on the floor of all places. Very tricky to constantly climb under the steering column to adjust at speed - takes both eyes off the road. This would have been an extreme oversight without forward emergency braking.

 

I agree with you. What I do is switch on the seat heater just after startup. Saves grief.
