Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 DODGE CHARGER MY CELL PHONE CHARGER CAUGHT ON FIRE IN MY CONSOLE. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THIS WAS NOT WARRANTIED. I HAD TO PAY $1,000 OUT OF POCKET. THIS FIRE WAS NOT PUT THERE BY ME. I DID NOT START THE FIRE. WE HAD TO PULL FUSE OUT OF OUTLET BECAUSE THE FIRE CONTINUED BLAZING. I THINK THIS IS A FACTORY DEFECT. I HAVE A KAWASAKI DEALERSHIP AND IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED ON OUR UNIT,. KMC WOULD HAVE COVERED IT. HOW CAN DODGE EXPECT ME TO BUY EXTENDED WARRANTY WHEN BASIC DID NOT COVER MY OUTLET CATCHING ON FIRE. MY CELL PHONE WAS BEING CHARGED WHEN THE FIRE STARTED. *TR
