Exclamation Seat damage from heater FYI

Last summer I called AoA and told them that my passenger seat's heating element had failed and burnt through the seat and burned my passenger. My drivers seat was also acting up and showed some signs of damage to the leather. They replaced both heating elements and reupholstered the bottoms of both seats free of charge. They also gave me a sweet *** Q5 2.0t fully loaded to drive for a few days (really made me wish I had a new Audi)

Just wanted to share, maybe some of you have the same problem as I had.
