Angry Seat Heaters Failure

Hi there,
just want to report that my Seat Heaters burnt out and stop working last week on my 2006 RH400h. Dealer quoted 3500 to repair. Anyone else had this problem?

$3500, wow, that must include new seats. Does not surprise me as there are few working at Lexus who are going to take your seat apart and install new heating elements and get it back together. I do cherish my seat heaters, even in Jacksonville when we are going below freezing for the first time this week!

If both seats quit working together, I doubt the problem is in the seats???
