Consumer Description

DROVE HOME FROM A TRIP AND PARKED OUR 2005 DODGE DURANGO IN OUR GARAGE AT 11:30 PM AND AWOKE AT 5:00 AM TO SMOKE ALARM TO FIND THE INSIDE OF OUR TRUCK ON FIRE. HAD OUR CAR WINDOWS BEEN DOWN, MY 2 SONS, MY HUSBAND AND MYSELF WOULD BE DEAD. IT LOOKS AS IF SOMETHING OVERHEATED BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL INSIDE THE DASH AND IGNITED. *JB
