Does anyone's seat barely cool?

I understand that our seats (2011) models are ventilated. Does this mean when the AC is on that AC goes through them as well?

Also the front portion of the seat back never gets cold, should it?

The heated /cooled seats don't actually use the ac or heat from the car. It uses thermoelectric heating/cooling. There is a filter under the seat before the fan. It could be clogged causing loss of flow.

Definately check the filters, they are round things and the bottom should be white, they screw on and off. The cooling, I have found to depend on how cool it is inside your car, also, how thick of clothing you are wearing.

I notice that my sack tends to cool rather quickly but not my back so much....like the bottom of the seat cools better than the upper part of seat...but it feels nice

Agreed. I usually have the seat cooler on even in the winter.

Seat coolers are a necessity in Florida for that reason lol.
