Consumer Description

I PULLED MY FORD EXPEDITION 2002 INTO A GAS STATION, TURNED OFF THE ENGINE, AND GOT OUT TO PUMP GAS. I BEGAN TO NOTICE THAT EVERYONE ELSE BEGAN FRANTICALLY LEAVING AND TELLING ME TO RUN. I SAW SMOKE COMING FROM MY HOOD AND ASSUMED THAT IT WAS JUST RUNNING HOT BUT SOON REALIZED THAT THE ENGINE WAS OFF. WITHIN SECONDS I BEGAN TO SEE FLAMES AND RAN IN FEAR THAT THE ENTIRE GAS STATION WAS GOING TO EXPLODE. LUCKILY FIRE TRUCKS CAME WITHIN A MINUTE A PUT THE FLAMES OUT AND NO ONE WAS HARMED. *TT
