Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, WHEN I SAW SPARKS FLY ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE OF ROAD BESIDE MY CAR, THE ABS LIGHT AND ANOTHER LIGHT CAME ON THE DASHBOARD AND IMMEDIATELY WENT AWAY WHEN I BRAKED AND PULLED OFF HIGHWAY. I CHECKED TIRES AND EVERYTHING APPEARED OKAY. DROVE APPROXIMATELY 10 MORE MILES, HEARD A LOUD POP UNDER THE HOOD, CAR AND LIGHTS SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY. PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY, OPENED HOOD AND BATTERY WAS ON FIRE. VEHICLE HAS ORIGINAL BATTERY AND MILEAGE AROUND 51,000. CALLED FIRE DEPARTMENT TO EXTINGUISH FIRE AND THEY SAID SOMETHING LIKE THAT SHOULDN'T HAVE OCCURRED ON A VEHICLE THAT WAS PRETTY NEW. *TR
