KyleV Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Coming from an explorer platinum that had great heated and ventilated seats we have been a bit disappointed in the base seats in our 2022 aviator. We only feel the ventilation in the back and not the bottom on both the driver and passenger in the medium or max setting. Do the base seats both the lower and back sections?

Yes but most of the newer versions just don’t work very well. Our Nautilus is good but not great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucelinc Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 They are a far cry from the actual COOLED seats which used a peltier device. The seats in my 2020 MKS would frost your buttocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the later models just used a fan under the seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure that was a marketing thing (calling them ventilated instead of cooled ) to cover up for the poor performance a few years ago. It also does heating via the fan so it must have the peltier device. Edited August 12, 2023 by akirby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
