WHILE DRIVING WITH MY 2 YEAR OLD...I SMELLED WHAT I THOUGHT WAS MY ENGINE OVERHEATING, PULLED OVER TO TAKE A LOOK AND AS OPENED MY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR SMOKE WAS BILLOWING OUT OF MY SEAT, MELTING A HOLE THROUGH TO THE LEFT SIDE OF SEAT BOTTOM, NEAR BACKREST AND SEAT ADJUSTMENT BUTTONS. LUCKILY, AFTER TURNING THE SEAT HEATER OFF THE ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION COOLED OFF. I WENT TO LOCAL VOLVE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID "YOUR CAR IS TOO OLD TO HAVE A VALID RECALL STATUS", NOR DID THEY OFFER TO ASSIST IN ANY WAY.
