Default Cooling Seats - Are Your Seat Backs Working Properly?

So I just ran truck for 15 minutes and the back of the seat near the output of the TED reached 123F. That was with no one in the seat...

Lets keep this going: https://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/ivoq/

Here's what I wrote, feel free to copy and paste.

Front seat back cooling system (TED) is malfunctioning. When seat cooling is selected, after 30 minuets, the back of the front seats reach extreme temperatures, resulting in burning everyone that touches the back of the front seats. I've measure the temperatures, at the top of the map pocket, at over 115 degrees, when ambient temperatures were at 75 degrees. When ambient temperatures rise above 90 degrees, the front seat back temperature can reach up to 150 degrees or more! Please reference F150 owners comments and thermal pictures proving this is a serious issue that needs to be addressed ASAP, at the web address: https://www.f150forum.com/f118/cooli...operly-304154/

Here is another site that submits to manufacturers.

I'm putting my purchase date as the date for everything.

http://www.carcomplaints.com/addreport.shtml

They are backlogged, so it will take a few days to show up on the system.

I still not received my ODI confirmation code in my email box. I have even checked the spam folder several times. I went to the website and tried to place another complaint on line. Here is what I got. I guess we are crashing their site. I guess I will call them.
