Did Ford pull heated seats from 302A? When I put in my order they were listed as part of 302A and now the description just says "power lumbar."

Yep, it was there when I ordered last month as well. Looking at the dealer order sheets it seems like it's still in there, but it's not on the website so who knows?

As dumb as it is it's a deal breaker for me if my $42k truck shows up at the dealer without heated seats.

I just read an article the other day that GM removed heated seats as an option from all but a few of the high end trim packages of some vehicles. More chip shortages.

heated seats may be available as a dealer ad on after the sale. What I was reading for GM was that they’d be built with everything but the chip (and probably switch) and then as chips become available the dealers can add them to already sold vehicles.

i see heated mirrors....and i drool.
my 19 XLT didn't have them, and believe me Ford, you suck for not offering them that year in the package.
FWIW Ford....Canada = cold. There should never be a question that heated everything is required, even on the base model. The option to tick that box should be a no brainer for every single car and truck you sell up here.
No different than not offering cooled seats for those of us in hot climates here. Trust me when it's 115 out you can use all additional cooling you can get. With that said Katzkin offers a great heated/cooled seat option.

agreed.
i rented an explorer once, it had the cooled seats.
made me feel like i was sitting on a wet sponge at first, but you get used to them and its nice on hot days, just like heated seats are on cold days.
Lol Yeah it almost feels like a cold wet steam bath at first. I might get the Katzkin in my Jeep and if I do I'll definitely be adding the heat/cooled seats. It does have heated seats from the factory but they're luke warm at best. My Ranger seats are WAY warmer.

When we ordered ours last August, the option for heated cloth seats wasn't there.... I looked at the Ford site several times between August and October and the option had come back for them... I said I wanted the heated cloth option, but not a big deal if I couldn't get it...

That is the exact reason that I cancelled my order for a 2022 GMC Canyon AT4 Off-road and ordered a 2022 Ranger Lariat Tremor. Gm dropped the ball so I went to Ford.

I have read several places that the dealer will be able to add heated seats and other items later after the chips come in. Guess we will see.

I just checked my order on the tracking site and it has no mention of heated seats. This is one of the reasons I switched my order from 301a to 302a in my Tremor. They better have a plan to get it put in free at a later date or with will have some upset customers including myself.

I found it a bit ridiculous they have heated but not cooling option when I got my 2019 lariat. Guess when you don't go full-size they don't do "full" options lol
