Heated steering wheel on Lux package

[Snowdogyyz]

I’m positive.
Not that anyone on this forum cares but the heated steering wheel on my Gladiator worked great and provided exceptional warmth to my fingers on many a chilly doors off day.

I had a gladiator as well. The bronco steering wheel gets nowhere near as warm- although mine goes get “warm”.

The stock setting isn't the warmest I've ever had on a steering wheel, but if you feel absolutely no heat, then it isn't working right.

The heated seats are really good though. If you go commando you might get a burn.

Yes, no heat at all.
seats are perfect however.
if that’s the worse thing I experience being a new Bronco owner then I’ll be happy.

It must be a regional thing because our Luc OBX steering wheel is hot hot hot and the seats are the same way.

I've not had any problems with mine. Used it numerous times this past winter and was quite happy with it.

I would say mine gets “warm” and in specific locations. But that’s all that’s need IMO. Warms my hands well

Just picked up my Wildtrak one week ago. Thought I’d try out the heated steering wheel tonight and no heat. Anyone else experience this issue when they first bought their Bronco?

Hmmm. Mine gets hot rather quickly, even in 0 degree weather...

Mine's in the 'warm but not hot' group. Definitely noticeable pretty quickly though.

No issues with mine, that thing gets hot in a hurry

Hey there. I can look into your Bronco’s heated steering wheel concerns on my end if you’d like. Will you send us a private message with your VIN and dealership info?

If I leave my steering wheel heater on I have to wear oven mitts . The seat heaters allow me to transport oven fresh pizza in the passenger seat . I believe I could cook a meal on the seats on the high setting. BTW, I like them.

Anyone know if a dealer/service can increase the temp of a heated steering wheel or if it can be done in forscan? Other manufacturers have had this option to increase temperatures by changing a setting/set point. Sounds like this may not be the issue here but would be good to know if this is possible given the range of responses from people. I have a heated steering wheel and it doesn't do much compared to other vehicles I have had, almost worthless.

I know there is for the seats that can be changed in ForScan. I hope there's one for the wheel

Yes, you can change the heat setting in Forscan, I've set mine higher and have had no issues.

I also turned my heated wheel up. It's almost at max setting and still "warm" but not hot. But it works for me. I wouldn't want the wheel to get as hot as the seats do.
