Consumer Description

LEFT FOR WORK ON THIS DAY IN THE USUAL MANNER. TURNED ONTO US 19 FROM US 64. AS I ACCELERATED FROM THE STOPLIGHT THE TRUCK BACKFIRED OUT OF THE EXHAUST, I SHIFTED GEARS AND IT BACKFIRED AGAIN, THIS TIME THE "CHECK ENGINE LIGHT" CAME ON.

I CALLED 911 TO REPORT THE FIRE. BY THE TIME THE FIRETRUCKS GOT THERE THE ENTIRE MOTOR COMPARTMENT AND PASSENGER COMPARTMENT WERE BLAZING. *TR
