2021 Seat Tarraco Hybrid: Seeking Advice on Seat Heating Failure

Hey, Yeah, that's a bummer for sure! I had a similar gremlin with my 2016 Seat Leon. My seat warmers were on the fritz. Turns out there was an issue with the heating mat inside the seats. It's pretty intricate as they had to pull the seats out and open 'em up. The last thing you want is to ride around with cold seats, especially in winter. You know, it wasn't the most minor issue, but it wasn't something super major either. They had to replace the defective heating mats. Just be prepared for your car to spend a couple of days at the garage. But hey, once they're done with it, you'll be driving around toasty warm. Here's to avoiding frigid rides!

Hey there, Thanks for sharing, really appreciate it! Sounds like a bit of a hassle but relieved to know it's not a mega problem. Alright, it's time to brace myself for the temporary separation from my Tarraco then, haha. Got a rough idea of how much you were set back by fixing the heating mat? And have you found any other related issues popping up since the repair? Can't have enough info when it comes to prepping for the garage visit...you know the drill! Stay warm and thanks a ton!

Hello again, To give you an idea about the cost, my wallet got lighter by exactly 390€ for getting the heating mat fixed. Though it wasn't exactly a small change, the comfort it brought was totally worth it, especially considering I no longer had to endure freezing mornings in my car. Since the repair, I haven't run into any other issues related to seat heating at all. It's been working like a charm, and I can confidently say that the chilly rides are finally a thing of the past. Who knew a working seat heater could bring such joy! Anyway, buckle up for the short-term separation from your Tarraco. But hey, it'll come back to you warmer and cosier, I promise! Keep the spirit up!

Hey, Ah, a sigh of relief, indeed! A bit of a pinch to the pocket but yeah, can't put a price on comfort, can we? Especially when it's about staying warm on the chilly early morning commutes. Good to know you haven't faced any follow-up issues, it's definitely reassured me. Well, guess I'm ready to let my Tarraco have its little holiday at the mechanics now. Here's to warmer drives in the near future and thanks a million for your help! Will be sure to update once it's sorted. Until then, keep toasty!
