Consumer Description

FORD F150 TRUCK, FIRE FROM CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH. THE TRUCK HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN IN OVER 24 HRS. IT CAUGHT ON FIRE (UNDER THE HOOD ONLY)IN OUR DRIVEWAY. WE USED A WATER HOSE TO EXTINGUISH IT QUICKLY. NOT SURE HOW MANY PARTS HAVE BEEN DAMAGED FROM FIRE. LUCKILY WE CAUGHT IT BEFORE ANY MAJOR DAMAGE OCCURRED. THIS SWITCH WAS REPLACED 3 WEEKS AGO AT A FORD DEALER DUE TO LAST FORD RECALL. HOWEVER THE LAST TIME THE TRUCK WAS DRIVEN THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS USED. *TR
