Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have had this car since 10/31/02. i purchased it new. i bought it for my teenagers to drive as they begin since it is a safe car. last weekend, (12/17/05) i was personally driving the car, and the seat warmer on the driver's side got so hot that it actually burned a hole in the seat, and the car smelled terrible for several days after. i think that having to fear an electrical fire in my car is outrageous. *nm
