Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING NORMALLY WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE CAR WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY AND TURNED OFF. AFTER APPROXIMATELY 15 TO 30 MINUTES AFTER THE CAR WAS PARKED IT SPONTANEOUSLY IGNITED. THE FIRE DEPT. WAS DISPATCHED AND SUCCESSFULLY EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THE TRUCK WAS DESTROYED AND THE DRIVEWAY SUSTAINED SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE. NOTHING WAS PREVIOUSLY DONE TO CORRECT ANY FAILURES BECAUSE WE WERE UNAWARE OF ANY PROBLEMS OR SAFETY HAZARDS IN THE VEHICLE. *JB
