Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING DOWN 114 IN GRAPEVINE, TX HEADING TOWARD SOUTHLAKE, TX. THE ENGINE STUTTERED AND THEN SHUTDOWN AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I COASTED TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY. I NOTICED SMOKE COMING OUT FROM THE LEFT SIDE OF THE HOOD. I GOT OUT TO POP THE HOOD TO SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. WHEN I TRIED TO LIFT THE HOOD FLAMES WERE SHOOTING OUT. I STEPPED BACK AND CALLED 911. WITH IN 3 MINUTES THE CAR WAS ENGULFED AND WAS A TOTAL LOSS. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT SHOWED UP AND PUT THE FIRE OUT. *TR
