| Description of the problem | I was driving on the 91 freeway eastbound in california. Somebody wave me to stop. The car got on fire while driving. As soon as we got out we saw the flames, it got on fire so bad that only the fire department was able to extinguish it. Some truck drivers tried to extinguish but they couldn't. It only had 24000 miles on it because i only use it on the weekends. I took really good care of it. Needless to say it was the scariest and saddest moment of my life. I'm still wondering what happened |
