I thought it was me but this is the second time I used my fob to start my truck and when I got in I couldn’t initially get the radio to turn on. Eventually I played around with it and it about blew my eardrums away. So I could t get the radio to come on. Also, the heated seat was on on high and I did not put it on. Anyone else have this weird stuff happen?

No problems with radio but my seat is on high after remote start. I wonder if it senses the temp outside and adjust accordingly?

you can set it to “auto” and it will attempt to make the interior cabin 74 degrees and turn on seat heaters depending on temp, or you can set it to default to last used settings and it will revert to whatever you last had climate control set to.

When you tried to turn on the radio, had you stepped on the brake pedal and pushed the Start button? When you remote start, the accessories are off and you have to turn the truck on to enable them.

Yes but I had the temp on off so it was surprising

So the way the system works if it is set to automatic under remote start in your settings is: the system will automatically attempt to bring the interior temperature to 72 degrees and the heated/cooled seats will come on as needed. When you get in and press the start button, the HVAC will resume your last used settings, but the seat will stay on.
