It could be worse. My friend's 80 yr old mother has a 2005 Nissan. She was
on her way to a Dr's appointment one morning, when her factory installed
seat warmer caused the seat she was sitting in, and her clothing to catch
fire. She pulled into a gas station where they came running out with an
extinguisher. Fortunately she was not seriously burned. Three weeks later
she is still in a rental car that so far Nissan has refused to pay for.
