Description of the problem	I purchased a certified preowned audi q5 last march 2013. The vehicle was running fine. No problems or concerns. I took the vehicle to an audi dealer in february 2014 for an annual service and also in march 2014 for my yearly inspection/emissions testing. On april 2014, i had loss the vehicle due to an unknown fire that had started in the car. Yes, my car was engulfed in fire! Prior to this fire, i had no problems or messages on my dashboard or smelled smoke while i had drove the car. The car was running fine up until that day. I have no idea what happened to my vehicle. The insurance company had investigated this vehicle, and they stated that arson was not the blame for the fire. They r/o an electrical issue that might of been the cause of the fire. The insurance company had also researched recalls and manufacturer defects, and they claimed there were no issues. I am completely stunned about this incident. The car was parked all day, and i just can't believe out of nowhere that the car had caught on fire. I've been in contact with the dealer where i purchased the vehicle, and they are as shocked as i am about what happen. Hopefully, i'll get an explanation as to why the vehicle had mysteriously caught on fire.
