Just when I thought I had seen all possible questions, issues, complaints, etc involving this car, you manage to come up with a new one

I know!!! I'm baffled by both posts he started, but this one I don't understand. I drove my 2009 Yaris in -41c ambient temperatures, I was wearing thin hiking boots and a thin sweater in my car on a two hour trip. Must have the heater fan settings on defrost towards the windshield only or it just doesn't give out heat.

Look at my post count. I don't hang out here posting pointless complaints. The Yaris is a great car and my complaints are very very few, but this one is really irritating for 1/4 of the year.

No. The cold comes from the floor itself. You hover your hand and the hot air comes from the footwell. In that regard, everything is fine. Put your hand directly on the floor and you'll feel it's QUITE cold during the winter.

That's why I'm looking for a solution. The TOP of my feet will be warm but the bottom is freezing because it seems as if the floor isn't providing any insulation whatsoever.

I was congratulating you on coming up with something new for us to contemplate and discuss.
