Consumer Description

MY 1995 EXPLORER WAS SITTING AND AT 12:30AM, WHEN IT CAUGHT ON FIRE AND BURNED. THE FIRE STARTED UNDER THE HOOD, AND THE VEHICLE WAS A TOTAL LOSS. THE INCIDENT OCCURRED ON THE EVENING MARCH 23. THIS WAS THE SAME EVENING THAT FORD RECALLED THE EXPEDITION FOR THIS VERY SAME TYPE OF PROBLEM, A COLD VEHICLE CATCHES FIRE UNDER THE HOOD. THIS WAS WHAT OUR EXPLORER DID AS WELL. HOWEVER WHEN WE CALLED FORD THEY SAID THAT THE EXPLORER WAS NOT ON THE RECALL.*AK
