Description of the problem | Went out to dinner with my parents - gone approximately 2 hours - came back to find the car completely burned. Fire department was called by a neighbor. There was no indication at all that there was anything wrong when we parked the car. Have found other cases (via the internet) in the uk that this has happened. *jb |
