Consumer Description

MY VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE AS I PROCEEDED TO PULL AWAY FROM A CURBSIDE PARKING SPACE. I TURNED MY WHEEL TO THE FAR LEFT AS I PROCEEDED AWAY FROM THE CURB AND THAT IS WHEN I HEARD A POP SOUND, SAW WHITE SMOKE SPEWING FROM THE FRONT RIGHT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, THEN I SAW THE FLAMES. FIVE DAYS PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT, I HAD FRONT BRAKE PADS AND RESURFACED ROTORS PLACED ON THE VEHICLE. WITHIN THE PAST 30 DAYS THE ONLY OTHER MAINTENANCE PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE WAS A STANDARD OIL CHANGE. *TR
