| Description of the problem | On sunday(12/3/17), i drove home from church, parked my car in front of my house and entered my house for less than ten minutes prior to my neighbor knocking on my door to notify me that my nissan rogue was engulfed in flames. I had no suspicion that anything was wrong with my vehicle to cause a fire. One block from my house i was pulled over by a cop, who notified me that she saw one of my headlights go out. There was no sound, light or smell that would have indicated a problem with my vehicle. I am grateful for being in my house at the start of the fire. I had no aftermarket upgrades done to my vehicle and it was regularly taken in for oil changes and to have tire maintenance. My concern is another nissan rogue owner will not be as lucky as i was and instead will be driving at the time of an engine fire. |
