Consumer Description

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE 2 WEEKS AGO WHEN I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY, IT FELT LIKE I HIT SOMETHING BUT NOTHING WAS IN THE ROAD. I ASSUMED I HAD A BLOWOUT. WHEN I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD THE HOOD WAS SMOKING, AND THE TIRES WERE FINE. I THEN PROCEEDED TO OPEN THE HOOD TO FIND A FIRE. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT CAME TO PUT OUT THE FIRE AND SUGGESTED THAT IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION. I AM CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF HAVING THE VEHICLE EVALUATED TO FIND OUT IF THIS IS TRUE. *JB
