Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING AND SMELLED BURNING. PULLED OVER ON A FOUR LANE HIGHWAY. I THEN SAW SMOKE. I DROVE A BLOCK AWAY TO A SAFE SPOT GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND CALLED 911. THE FIREFIGHTERS EXTINGUISHED AN ELECTRICAL FIRE THAT STARTED IN MY PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. THEY BELIEVE THE MOTOR IN MY DOOR CAUGHT FIRE. I HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED. NOW I'M AT A LOSS AS TO WHAT TO DO. THANK GOD I HAD JUST DROPPED MY SON OFF AT SCHOOL SO NO INJURIES.
