Weak Ventilated Seats

[jimnycricket65]

This could be related to why I thought the AC started underperforming. The overall chill/coldness in the AC dropped, I felt. I just lower the temperature but still not as good as when I first got the CT>

I have a 2023 MX that has ventilated seats and when they are on high it’s chilly and feels great.

The cybertruck ventilated seats are much much weaker and barely feel it on high.

anyone else barely feel their ventilated seats in cybertruck?

I beg to differ. My seats go on at all and I feel it big time and it is a bit disconcerting. I have never used them before so maybe it is me. I think I'll take them off 'auto'.

You got it wrong. The seats don't blow. That sucks.

The situation sucks and blows, but the seats should cool by sucking air though the seat and expelling it underneath.

I think they changed when they updated all of the cooling times etc. Mine used to feel stronger also.

I had an OG Model X and a Model Y, so the CT is my first experience with ventilated seats. I assumed they were all this weak!

I too hope the air coming from the seats is increased via a software update.

Mine are kind of weak in terms of airflow but it's a lot better than nothing.

It helps if you turn off auto climate so you can send cold air through the foot vents. This feeds the seat fans cooler air. It's not the most efficient way to cool the cabin, but that would only matter if you were pushing the range limits of the truck.

I'm surprised there are that many of us commenting here that have both an X and a CT! compared to our 23 X, the CT ventilated seats are extremely weak. I don't know about it getting weaker with an update--it was just colder weather before so I'd only turn it on every now and then but it's always been sort of wimpy

Remember the Tesla patent where they were going to put actual cooling piping in the seats ?? wonder what happened to that ?‍

A couple of months ago they felt really cold, but more recently not so much - but I sure can hear the fans going.

I've just installed a seat cover (ventilated also) on only the drivers side. Climbing in and out of the truck I was already noticing wear and tear on that seat's bolster.

I usually rock old school lambskin covers, but with the ventilated seats I thought this was a better route.

What seat cover? Are you happy with it?

I tend to be hard on seats but would hate to cover the ventilation.

Weird observation. My seat was wiggling they found it to be loose and fixed it. Now oddly I’m feeling the ventilated seats more. Maybe they also installed a new version of software that maybe caused this.

Did the better performance in your ventilated seats stick? Weather is warming up and at max I can barely tell if they are on or not.

Just turned it on today can’t feel anything really. It’s so weak compared to my MX.

Yea, hoping Tesla can address this, the output currently is not worth advertising and if I can't tell they are on lvl 3 or off there is obviously an issue.
