Description of the problem	The engine compartment burst into flames after a 15 mile drive home from work. No warning, no nothing! Within ten minutes the entire engine compartment was engulfed in an out of control electrical fire. We had just purchased the vehicle from what we thought was a reputable dealer (obviously not). Had taken it back twice in 10 days and on the 13th day and after only 500 miles it decides to spontaneously combust! This is a serious issue with these vehicles and something needs to be done! If it had happened in the garage or worse just 10 minutes earlier while filling up the gas tank what would the outcome have been? This is a very serious issue and our stupid government needs to do something and quit worrying about all the political nonsense all day every day! What the heck are we paying you bureaucrats for? Nothing?
