Consumer Description

MY 2001 FORD ESCAPE SPONTANEOUSLY CAUGHT FIRE IN MY DRIVEWAY THIS EVENING. IT HAD BEEN DRIVEN APPROXIMATELY 1.5 MILES, PARKED AND THEN CAUGHT FIRE. A PASSERBY SAW FLAMES COMING OUT FROM UNDERNEATH THE CAR AND CALLED DISPATCH. THE VEHICLE IS BEYOND REPAIR. I AM AWARE OF SOME RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE AND HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN FOR REPAIRS/REPLACEMENTS WHEN A RECALL WAS ISSUED. I AM UNSURE, AT THIS TIME, AS TO THE CAUSE OF THE FIRE BUT FELT I WOULD BE REMISS IF I DID NOT REPORT THE INCIDENT. HAS THERE BEEN A RECALL CONCERNING THIS VEHICLE AND ENGINE FIRE? *TR
