They came on today!


It was 37 when I got in the truck and the steering wheel and driverside seat was on. Passenger side is not on, but I think that is normal...

I don't think passenger side will ever turn on during auto-start. Not an option.

Rob, you are correct - only the drivers side is automatic.

I've had problems with my heated steering wheel and it was eventually replaced. Now that the weather is getting cold again I've noticed that the steering wheel and heated seat switches are "on" when I use the remote starter but the seat and steering wheel are not warm/activated. Has anyone else had a problem like this? It was 10° the last time I tried the remote starter...

On my 09 the temp has to be 41 deg before the creature comforts will turn on with the remote start. They use to turn on at about 50 deg until they did an update flash to my truck.

Default Similar issue with 2013 Laramie

In my Uconnect, I see this option....I check the box and in 5 seconds or so later, the box unchecks itself:




Anyone else see this?

I have my climate set to AUTO and I see the seat heat lights and steering wheel heat light come on during auto start but until I get in and press the ON button (where the key would go) - I do not get any heat at all.

That's not normal. Sounds like it's time to go talk with the service dep at the dealer.

Did you ever get anywhere with this hanadarko. No one seems to deem this important. The fact that you check the box and then it goes away is a major problem. I to have this issue.

There is a STAR on this. The dealer has updated software for the seat heater ECM. Once it was flashed (last week) the issue went away and the checkbox stays checked.

I dont have the STAR number but if you run across an issue let me know and I can put u in touch with MY dealer. They got it 1 day before I knew about it.
