How to verify heated seats on a Durango
Use these steps to confirm whether a specific Durango includes heated seats before you buy or lease.
- Check the window sticker or original build sheet for “Heated Front Seats” and/or the Cold Weather Group, which commonly bundles heated seating with other winter-ready features.
- Inspect the seat controls: a heated-seat button usually appears as a seat icon with wavy lines near the climate controls or seat adjustment area.
- In the Uconnect system, look under Climate or Comfort settings to see if seat heaters are listed and active.
- Request a VIN-based option check from the dealer, which can confirm installed features tied to that specific vehicle.
By following these steps, you can confirm whether a Durango has heated seats and avoid surprises after you take delivery.
Why heated seats matter
Heated seats offer immediate warmth on cold mornings, can help ease back discomfort, and add a touch of luxury to daily driving. For buyers in colder climates or with long commutes, this feature pairs well with other comfort and convenience options like remote start and all-wheel drive.
Summary
Heated front seats are widely available across the Dodge Durango lineup, especially on mid- to high-level trims and through optional groups on base models. If you want heated seating, look for GT and above on newer models or verify the presence of the Cold Weather Group on the SXT. Always confirm the feature for the exact vehicle you’re considering to ensure it meets your needs.
