Consumer Description

I HAD NO PROBLEM WITH ANYTHING ELECTRICAL, EVER, WITH MY 2000 F150 LARIATE. I DROVE TO TOWN, CAME HOME, PARKED MY TRUCK IN THE DRIVEWAY, 4 HOURS LATER I HEARD A LOUD BOOM AND WENT TO THE DOOR TO SEE A HUGE FIRE COMING FROM THE HOOD OF MY PICKUP TRUCK. THE FIRE MARSHAL SAID IT STARTED UNDER THE DASH. MY TRUCK WAS TOTALED. *JB
