| Description of the problem | I was pulling into a partking lot and i started to smell something. I thought it was in the air but then i noticed that there was smoke coming from under my front hood. I immediately pulled over, got out of the van and saw smoke then fire coming from under the hood. I moved quite a distance away and call 911 as i was standing looking at the van, i saw something dripping with fire from the right passenger front end. Car was toast. It burned immediately. No warning sign, engine light alert nothing ... Very scarey!! Will not buy another quest. |
