Consumer Description

MY 2000 FORD F-150 BURNED TO A CRISP LAST NIGHT. I HAD DRIVEN THE VEHICLE AND PARKED IT IN MY DRIVEWAY AND WAS INSIDE PUTTING THE GROCERIES AWAY WHEN I HEARD A "BOOM" OUTSIDE AND WHEN I RAN OUT I OBSERVED A FIRED FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. IT APPEARS TO ME THAT THE VEHICLE IS TOTALED. THERE WAS SOME MINOR DAMAGE TO MY RESIDENCE AND I NOW HAVE A REALLY COOL LOOKING GARBAGE CAN FROM THE HEAT OF THE FIRE. FRIENDS INFORMED ME TODAY THAT THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS RECALLS, AND SIMILAR INCIDENTS, BUT I HAVE NOT HEARD ABOUT ANY RECALLS. WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT THIS BESIDES CONTACTING MY INSURANCE COMPANY(S)? *NM
