Consumer Description

ON JULY 17 2006 I ARRIVED AT WORK AND PARKED MY 2001 FORD F150 PU NEAR THE COUNTRY CLUB WHERE I WORK. I WENT INSIDE AND WAS IN THE CLUB FOR APPROX 10 MIN WHEN A FELLOW EMPLOYEE CAME RUNNING INSIDE AND SAID MY PU WAS ON FIRE. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE FIRE DEPT. WHILE SOME OF THE OTHER EMPLOYEES TRIED HELPING ME PUT THE FIRE OUT. I HAD NO TYPE OF WARNING THAT SOMETHING LIKE THIS WOULD HAPPEN. I HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH MY PU UNTIL THIS MOMENT. MY PU WAS TOTALED AND NOW I HAVE NOTHING.THIS SITUATION COULD HAVE BEEN ALOT WORSE IF I WOULD NOT HAVE HAD FELLOW EMPLOYEES THERE TO HELP ME OUT. THE CLUB COULD HAVE CAUGHT A FIRE OR SOMEONE COULD HAVE BEEN REALLY HURT.
