ok so this is my first time with vented seats. Are they supposed to be so loud??
Kinda strange they couldn’t find a fan that makes less noise. Also kinda strange that when I turn off the AC they keep blowing until I turn off the switch for vented air. That’s how I heard the seat fan. FWIW. Can someone else check this out in their 2019 to see if it’s the same.

My 2017 is the same way but I don’t even notice it now. When I first bought it I thought I was hearing air coming from the engine compartment thru the firewall. The cooled seats were coming on automatically. I had never had seats with this feature before. Once I figured out it was the fan I kinda felt dumb lol

I haven’t been in a 2019 with the new seats, if it’s a concern have them check it out

Mine are kinda loud in my 2011. The first time I heard it I didn't know what the heck it was but it didn't take long to put things together.

It’s normal for them to be a little loud. My 2014 were a little more quiet but I don’t think they cooled as well either.

Thanks for the replies.
I’m sure it’s one of those things in a couple weeks I won’t even notice. Thanks again.

I'm still 6-7 weeks out from receiving my 19 Ram........but my 16 GMC makes noise and my 2012 BMW made noise. Funny thing is ....I only hear it, now, when I purposely try to hear it......like with music off, and my ear turned to the side almost.
