The product, in the report: Big Ant Heated Seat Cushion, 12V
Heated seat cover was plugged into 2004 [REDACTED] via the DC 12v. The vehicle was ON for 30 minutes (and thus the seat cover was also on and warming). At the end of 30 minutes, the vehicle was turned off. This was roughly 11:30am. At 4pm we returned to the vehicle and found the cab full of smoke and the seat cover was on fire (flames, not just smoking).
