Overtrail + rear seat heatets

Any OTP folks out there noticing the rear seat heaters are pretty worthless at best? Dealer says they work - ya right. Slightly warm mid-back only after 15 mins
Don’t really know how well the rear heat is a few people said it worked never asked how well not to be funny or snob I only sit in the driver’s side that’s where the drive experience start and ends for me
 
Just did some basic test and front and rear seats registered at 65F/18.3C without sitting in the seat. This was measured 10 minutes after setting seat temp to max. It may be slightly warmer with you sitting in seat. Also the steering wheel topped out at 85F/29.4C and the side mirrors 80F/26.6C. The ambient temp was 51F/10.5C. This was non-scientifically measured with a thermal imager. As soon as I can get it to work, I will post the pics of the seat heating elements.

Setting the seat temp to low took a very long time to register. That might be why some think it doesn't function correctly. I would set seat to high and shut off/reduce temperature when comfortable.
 
As promised, although a little late. This is from an October build.

I have the same issue. The driver seat barely heats up, the rest are pretty much non functional for what the heating function is supposed to do. The backs of the seats included.
 
Strange, my OT front seat heaters (and steering wheel heater) work fine. Just finished a hike in -2 degrees chill factor and remote started the vehicle when I was about 7 minutes from the trailhead and everything was toasty on arrival.
