Cooled Seats don’t feel 100%

[Lpetters84]

Is anyone having issues with their cooled seats not cooling like they did when the truck was brand new? My seats fee like they don’t have as much power as they did when I rolled off the dealer lot. I do have the massaging seats and I’m wondering if the massaging part of the seat has loosened the air flow vent connection to the seat.

my understanding is there are just a couple tubes and hoses that direct the Airflow to the seats.

Mine is working fine in hot Arizona after 13k miles.

I would say mine have never been very cool but when it's about 150 inside, seems like anything is better than nothing and although I'm not certain, I think there is just some kind of air circulation going on in the seats I don't think there is actually any cooled air generated inside them nor any air from the a/c piped in. My seats don't have the massage feature or max recline.

For one, they aren't "cooled" they are ventilated. All they do is pull/suck the ambient air in the truck into the seat. I do take my shop vac to the seats every time I vacuum the floors. This will pull the dirt/debris out of the ventilation holes in the seats. Maybe the OP might try that? Also turn them on by themselves to make sure the fans are working. They are noisy.

They are definitely working but I’m thinking maybe a hose is loose causing a reduction in airflow. I’m taking it to the dealer later this month for another issue so they are going to take a look.

Just take a thin sheet of paper or tissue and see what it does with the ventilated seat is on. If it pulls it down on the seat bottom or back then it's working. No trip to the dealer needed to determine if it's working or not.
