NHTSA complaint: 2013 FORD FUSION — ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
YESTERDAY I PURCHASED A VEHICLE THROUGH AN AUTO BROKER FROM MANHEIM ATLANTA. NO MORE THAN 6 HOURS LATER THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT AND EXPLODED MULTIPLE TIMES. 7:30PM I WAS DRIVING ON 285 HEADED HOME AND I NOTICED A WARNING ON MY DASH STATING THAT THE POWER STEERING ASSISTANCE HAS A FAULT AT THE SAME TIME I NOTICED BALLS OF FIRE COMING FROM UNDERNEATH MY CAR. I TRIED TO GET TO THE SHOULDER HOWEVER THE ENGINE SEIZED HINDERING ME FROM DOING ANYTHING. BY THE TIME THE CAR SLOWED THE INTERIOR WAS FILLED WITH SMOKE, I JUMPED OUT THEN THE CAR EXPLODED MULTIPLE TIMES. *TR
