Description of the problem	Toyota camry 2004 got caught on fire i drove my toyota camry 2004 the other day and suddenly the abs system was triggered. Engine died. When i cranked it back up again, smokes started coming out. I changed my oil regularly. The last one was a week before at valvoline (they checked all fluids) toyota ran an investigation and this is what they made up: "serpentine belt is faulty, continued to be operated, pressure in radiator caused it to burst and sprayed coolant onto the battery and fuse box and relay panel which led to a short circuit" i talked to a nice service technician at toyota and i was told that it might be something that they made up to get away it. He explained to me how that wasn't too likely to happen toyota told me that they'll call me before inspecting the car. They never did . They sent me a letter, which arrived a day after my vehicle is supposed to be towed from the dealer (on friday). I had to wait till monday to tow it away and they charged me weekends storage fee ($25 a day) i planned to just donate the car and it will usually takes 2-3 days. I thought i'll do that by the time they are ready to inspect my car. I called toyota earlier and they told me they would call me back (2 days - even after inspection). Again, that never happened till now the whole engine compartment is burned up. Most stuffs melted, but i'm surprised they can conclude that it's the serpentine belt. You have to look at my vehicle to believe. Everything there melted and turned black before fireman came (huge fire). I went to check and retrieve the belt and it looked like someone cut it deliberately. I even had hard time opening the hood because they damaged it..... Do you guys think this is a foul play? I got no full coverage on the car. I'm pretty much broke now.... And they sorta push me to get rid of my car they said they'll call me to arrange a meeting for inspection. They never did and inspected my car anyway they cut some stuffs like serpentine belt from my engine.
