A vehicle seat includes a disinfecting light source configured to kill or inactivate bacteria, viruses, or other pathogens residing on a seating surface or on other surfaces adjacent the seat. A controller ensures the vehicle is not occupied while a disinfection cycle takes place. The light source can be in strip form and integrated with a decorative covering of the seat as part of its aesthetic design.
