Consumer Description

MY COMPLAINT IS BECAUSE, I OWNED A FORD EXPEDITION 2001 THAT CAUGHT ON FIRE ON AUGUST 9, 2007. IT WAS OUT OF MY HOUSE IN THE NIGHT WHEN WE STARTED TO SEE SMOKE IN THE STREET, AND WHEN WE WENT OUT OF THE HOUSE, THE ENGINE WAS ON FIRE, AND STARTED TO ADVANCE BACKWARDS THE FIRE, UNTIL THE FIREMEN CAME AND SEIZED THE FIRE. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IF THERE CAN BE AN OPTION TO MAKE A LAWSUIT ABOUT THIS EVENT BECAUSE OF THE RISK THAT MY FAMILY AND I LIVED. *TR
