| Description of the problem | My 2004 nissan quest se caught on fire and was totaled. The vehicle has been acting strange and 5 days prior to the fire was the last day i drove it. It would not crank after i put it in the garage and so i was going to have it towed to the nissan dealer the next week. It was not touched after that day until we were awoke by our smoke alarms. We opened our garage door as it was the nearest exit only to realize the fire was in the garage. When we went outside around to the garage we saw that the fire was coming from under the hood of the van out the windshield and passenger side front tire. |
