I'm wondering how well the seat heaters in other people's 2015's are working. Compared with all the other Chrysler/Dodge cars I've owned, the seat heaters in my '15 Rallye are very weak. The heaters are working, as I feel a slight warming, however "high" is more like "low" on the other cars I've owned. If other people's seat heaters are working normally, I'll bring the car into the dealer to have them look at it.

Seat Heaters
I don't know about the 15's but my 13' has weak heated seats too. So weak in fact that I'll keep it on high on a long road trip the whole time, wouldn't do that in a German car.
the ones on my '15 SRT are "OK", I bought a 06 CRV for winter and the seats on that are real good, the SRT one very warm but not too warm...
Thanks for the info, guys. I have the perforated leather seats on my Rallye, and they don't get very hot. However, the Alcantera seats on my '06 Daytona got nice and hot, as do the cloth buckets on my wife's Chrysler 200.
On my '15 R&T with the Alcantara suede inserts, I feel like the heater works very well. I start sweating after a short time and need to turn them off.
I think they work fine but I can see how some wouldn't think so. High isn't as powerful as High is on other cars I've been in. But for me, it's fine enough and gets me warmed up.
I had my seats replaced recently due to stitching coming off (cloth seats) my heated seats worked well but now I noticed when on low it's like if it's not on at all but on high it immediately gets really hot.
Mine are pretty lame. They really don't ever get hot, even after letting the car warm up for awhile. If anything, they just make the seats not cold. I've never felt like I've had to turn them off because they were getting too warm. I always have them set to high. I can't imagine low doing anything.
Now the heating steering wheel, that's another story. Mine gets nice and hot. That's a feature I don't ever want to be without on a cold morning.

I agree 100%. This is the first car I've owned with a heated steering wheel, and I thought it was just a gimmick. However, now that winter is here and it's cold outside, I find that I really like the heated steering wheel. When I drive my wife's Chrysler 200 I find I miss the heated steering wheel.
Interesting to see the different feedback. Heated seats in my Charger with the leather/Alcantera seems weak at best, vented seats feel fine. Heated wheel is awesome. Leather seats in my wife's Durango and the heating element feels 100% better, wheel feels the same as mine.
Heated wheel is no joke. Love it. With smartphones now, I rarely wear gloves anymore and cold hands on the cold wheel is the worst. Heated wheel is a God send.
Have the same seats, and I can't even run mine on low for very long before my back gets sweaty. Now I live in WI and the car wasn't driven in Winter, but there were some 40 degree days I drove it in last fall, and even then the seats on Low seemed to get too warm for me. The Heated steering wheel was the same way, could only have it on for a little bit before I had to turn it off.
I have a 2017 SXT with the same issue. I took it back to the dealer and they couldn't find anything wrong. Yet, compared to the seats in my wife's Town and Country they seem to barely work.
