Well, I'm sure that sooner or later, this will be fixed. If not as a corporate order/recall, then as a class action lawsuit. As ppl mentioned, if the seats are not working properly, then Nissan/Infiniti is obligated to fix it.

Driver's seat seem the same amount of heat in either low or high. The passenger seat has only bottom heat with high setting and only back heat with low setting.

I hope they come up with a TSB or recall soon to fix it. At least I have a 7 yr extended warranty, but I hope it doesn't take them that long to come up with a fix.
how much was your 7 year extended warranty and what does it cover exactly? i am thinking about getting it (assuming that i can still purchase it after i drove the car off the lot).

OK guys, here is an update on this issue:

The service bulletin is not published yet, but Infiniti is aware of the problem and has it fixed. Look for it to be released very soon. Their solution seems to be some new wiring harness pigtails that plug in between the modules and corrects the problem. Apparently, I'm going to be the first one in the country to get the fix!

Special thanks to my service adviser Matt Gray at Suburban Infiniti! VEry awesome service. He went above and beyond to confirm the issue, contact the regional manager, and arranged get the parts special delivered before the bulletin was released. He has the parts in hand, and my car goes in Monday morning to get the fix. So, it is a real problem, Infiniti knows about it, and they have a solution now.

I'll let you know how it turns out.

Just like I thought! There's no way that Infiniti would have done nothing. Properly functioning heated seats is what we paid for and are obligated to get. If there was no fix, then it would have only looked bad for Infiniti because word would get out.

Will the solution fix 1) the heated seats not heating up as QUICK nor as HOT as we would like AND 2) the problem of the passenger side heating up only the seat bottom or only seat back?

I think it is supposed to fix both problems. Again, I'm getting it done Monday, so I'll let you know how it goes. Hopefully being the guinea pig for this will pay off!
