Description of the problem | While i was driving i smelled something burning. Noticed smoke coming out of air vent (driver side near window). Pulled over and notice brownblack smoke coming out of driver's side door (where window and lock controls are). Got kids out of the vehicle and called the fire department. When car is turned back on the door continues to smoke. Windows have opened and closed with no power. Was cautioned not to drive it as it will catch on fire. Reading other recalls on window switches there may be a possibility of catching fire while sitting still. |
