My 2013 BMW 3 series seat heater burned my back. The seat heater would come on automatic while I were driving causing a burn on my back. Happen in the month of July which seat heater shouldn't be on. Information were given to local dealership and also to BMW of North America. I stated that I have pictures of my burned back. The dealership stated they found no fault in the seats.
