description: MY ELEVEN YEAR OLD SON PUT THE RIGHT REAR PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW DOWN. WITHIN 30 SECONDS OF PUTTING THE WINDOW DOWN, THE POWER WINDOW SWITCH AND DOOR PANEL BEGAN TO SMOKE. THERE WERE LARGE AMOUNTS OF SMOKE AND A BURNING SMELL COMING FROM THE DOOR. THE DOOR PANEL BECAME EXTREMELY HOT CAUSING HIM TO UNDO HIS SEATBELT AND JUMP ACROSS THE SEAT. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE NITRO OFF KILLING POWER TO THE SWITCH. THE SWITCH CONTINUED TO BURN AND SMOKE FOR MORE THAN FIVE MINUTES AFTER I TURNED THE TRUCK OFF AND GOT MY FAMILY TO SAFETY. *TR
