Consumer Description

AN ELECTRICAL FIRE SEVERELY DAMAGED MY VEHICLE. THE FIRE STARTED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN. AT THE TIME OF THE FIRE NO ACCESSORIES WERE PLUGGED IN TO THE 12V POWER PORT. TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE THE ONLY ACCESSORIES THAT WERE BEING USED AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT WERE THE A/C AND THE RADIO. THE FIRE WAS EXTINGUISHED BY A HOMEOWNER, BUT THE VEHICLE SUSTAINED HEAVY DAMAGE TO THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER BETWEEN THE FRONT SEATS. THE CAR IS STILL COVERED UNDER THE FULL MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY, BUT AT THIS POINT I AM BEING TOLD THAT THIS IS NOT CONSIDERED A WARRANTY ISSUE BECAUSE THEY CAN NOT PROVE THAT THE FIRE WASN'T STARTED BY A DEVICE PLUGGED INTO THE 12V POWER PORT.
