2011 Ford F-150 Seats Problems

“Ever since the day I purchased my 2011 Ford F-150 it has had an extremely irritating as well as distracting vibration at highway speeds. Vibration is most noticeable in both driver and passenger seats as well as the floor. Have put 30k miles on it, tried new tires, numerous tire rotation/balances, even replaced rotors. No matter what I do the trucks shakes/vibrates at highway speeds. Please help!!”

“My heated seat drivers side became very hot - causing small red spot on my leg. Pulled seat cover which had become distorted and discovered heated seat element had shorted out melting copper wiring and burning a hole in foam seat cushion. Ended up replacing element and leather seat cover on my own just parts cost nearly $600. Contacted Ford customer service three times with no response. Checked google search and there are many people having issues with these elements. I saved cover, and element and have pictures available.”

“Rear sliding window defroster stopped working and driver's side heated seat also stopped working. Prior to heated seat stopping to work, it became so hot it actually made my leg so hot it hurt. If I was wearing shorts skin would of been burnt. At the time seat and defroster stopped working I smelled wires burning. Googled these problems I saw this is a very common occurrence. Took my truck to dealership, Ford will fix seat , but it will cost me $100 deductible. Rear window defroster is not covered by my extended warranty. At this time waiting to hear back from Ford. …”

“The vehicle does not have heated seats. The passenger seat heats up to an unconfirmed level causing your lower back and butt to burn. Concerned this may cause a fire under passenger in seat.”

“Console lid associated with the split bench seat. Latch, which is plastic, has broken off twice. Although fixed by warranty, I can see where this will be a continuing problem until the plastic is replaced with metal.”
