Consumer Description

I HAD A 2000 F-150 THAT CAUGHT FIRE 8 HOURS AFTER IT HAD BEEN PARKED IN OUR DRIVE-WAY. WE WOKE TO A VERY LOUD POPPING SOUND AT 1:20 A.M. THIS TURNED OUT TO BE THE TIRE EXPLODING FROM THE FIRE. BY THE TIME THE FIRE DEPARTMENT SHOWED UP AND PUT THE FIRE OUT THE TRUCK WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED.
