Narrative

This truck was driven daily and has been owned since new. No aftermarket accessories, all stock. The truck was parked in my warehouse over the weekend. When I returned on Monday morning I found the dashboard burned and melted, airbag deployed, and headliner scorched. I believe the airbag extinguished the fire and kept it from spreading outside the truck and possibly destroying my business. The truck has not been inspected by anyone other than mechanics working on quotes to repair it. The truck is still at my business and available for your inspection. There were no warnings of any kind.
