Description of the problem	My vehicle was functioning fine. I ran an errand, came home , parked my 2002 ford expedition under the parking shed and went into the house. Not over 45 minutes later my younger sister came and told me that my car was sparking and smoking. When i went to check on my truck i could see smoke and flames. I ran into the house to get the fire extinguisher and used it to put the fire out. I am fearful of driving this vehicle again but my insurance company feels that it can be repaired but can they assure me that this car won't experience the same sort of malfunction? What should i do? I want to drive a ford expedition but i don't want to drive this one anymore. I had to undo the battery later because sounds of sparks and the smell of burnt wire was still coming from the vehicle. What if this issue creates a chain reaction to my electrical system? I need a reliable car not a scary one. I checked the recall list for my car but am not sure if the recall is the cause for the fire but when i entered my vin number recall #05s28 came back. It indicated there was a recall regarding the speed control system. I don't know what that means and really don't care to but i want my truck. I don't want that truck fixed or repaired and if it is, give it to somebody else that can drive around in it not have experiencing what i did in it. Please, thankyou
