Description of the problem	Monday 7/20/15 (97 degrees hot) the car was in front of the garage. Put groceries inside the house, on my way back for more, i saw white smoke and the lights were flickering and smelt like burnt rubber and horn was making noise even though i had the car keys in my pocket. Next, i see black smoke coming out of the dash area and i ran inside to get the fire extinguisher from my kitchen. I sprayed the dash and it looked liked the smoke had stopped. Next thing a huge blaze of fire, so i ran to my hose and sprayed water on the dash. Windshield shattered and my passenger airbag went off. Firefighters and police came and assisted.
