ok last night after driving around for about an hour and a half, in my back seats down by the seat belt buckle and all the metal under the seats were burning hot, to where you couldn't touch them. does any one know why that would happen?

Do you have heated rear seats?

Was that an option that I missed?

I am not sure what year model he has. Although I am guessing it's not an 08, so odds are that's not the problem.

i have an 07, so no heated seats. could my pipes be making it that hot after driving for a while?

I noticed the same thing yesterday. Feel your back cargo area right at the seat... Is it really really hot? I'm suspecting something is up with the rear diff. My service 4wd light flashed on and it immediately started to go into limp mode. After is started shutting down... the light went off and the engine picked back up. I was hoping it was a fluke but find if I auto stick and race it up to about 180kph, a message will flash and now I have a CEL. :confused:

Id get under the Jeep right after a good length of a drive. If its making the seat buckles that hot then something has to be glowing down there

The only problem here is it's way to hot to be crawling on the ground looking for something hot :) 122°F yesterday
