Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ALONG AND THERE WAS SMOKE COMING FROM BELOW PASSENGER SIDE UNDER THE GLOVE BOX. PULL OVER AND SAW IT WAS A RESISTOR WITH TWO SCREWS. IT WAS BURNT, I UNPLUGGED AND DROVE HOME. THEN SEARCHED INTERNET AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ASAP, BEFORE SOMEONE DIES IN A FIRE. *JS
