No Heated or Cooled front seats

NjaTrtl · 03-30-2022, 11:39 AM

I was just checking my 2SS 1LE build on the Chevy site and noticed that they have removed the Heated and Cooled front seats. Anyone know if this is something that can/will be retrofitted later like the rear parking assist?

If you've got Recaros, you can retrofit the cooling feature at any time

Im going to be having a new camaro that should be builot this week sometime next month (pickup). How does one retrofit the cooloing feature? Is it replacing the seats or just ordering the chip and installing it.

If someone doesn't get recaros, what's gonna happen? Just lose out on the feature?

I checked my build as well. It notes that the heated seats are not going to be included much like the rear park assist feature. The disclaimer according to the website is that these features will be retrofitted later. My order is for a 2SS without Recaro seats which has a TPW at this point but I'll assume will come without the feature. It shouldn't matter what seats are in the car if Chevy indicates that it will remedy when components are available.

My dealer said my order for tpw 4/18 still shows them both on there, and that generally speaking other vehicles sold without heated/cooled seats are typically returning to finish out in a couple months.

If that's true at least it isn't too awfully long of a wait. Still hope mine comes with them anyway though

My 2SS 1LE has a build date of 4/18 as well and Dealer said no constraints on the build all but the rear park assist. Keeping my fingers crossed. does that ever change after the build order is accepted and moved to 3300 staurs?

I’m in the same place. 3300 with a TPW of 4/18. Mine too shows no constraints except the rear park assist. I asked the dealer today to reconfirm . . . Still waiting for a response.

There was a previous announcement (I don't recall the source) when GM began leaving these features out that the wiring, etc. for the heated/vented seats will be included and the chip/controller can be retrofitted by a dealership when they become available free of charge. That should apply for the normal and Recaro seats. I think they're giving like $100 credit for the inconvenience.

However, the heated steering wheel, as I recall reading, can NOT be retrofitted, so that feature becomes a loss. Probably unimportant for those in warmer climates, a bigger loss for anyone in the north.

ETA: here's one link on the retrofit. Google brings up others

What exactly is the “Chevy site” you are referring to, OP?

Chevrolet.com

Guess I should have been more specific?

No. I misunderstood. You just did a general build for that information.
Stating “your build” gave me the impression that you had an actual order number and knew of a site where one could see current status. I misunderstood it as some real information.

If only it were that simple.
