Hello all

I have a new 22 Frontier SV king cab. When I use the heated steering wheel it works but not at the “10 & 2” parts. Is this the intent or does this need to be looked at?

The heated wheel elements are all spiral-wrapped and it's always a crapshoot where they get the warmest. It depends on the guy who wrapped it. On our family Altima the warmest spots are about 12-4-8. There's not really anything you can do about it except try a different wheel.

My LS460 has glossy wood inserts at 3 and 9 (really from 2 to 4 and 8 to 10), the rest is leather-wrapped. Guess which part doesn't warm up?

Seems like a slight oversight on a car that's otherwise perfection.
