## Narrative
Recall 22S73 from Ford states that fuel injectors can crack and cause an under the hood fire. We have documentation showing that the dealer applied the recommended fix on June 26th 2023. On [XXX] I was driving and felt a fuel smell, a few seconds later I started seeing smoke coming from under the hood. By the time I got to the emergency lane there was already an open flame that brushed my hair as I got off the car. In less than 5 minutes my car was completely burn down along with my personal belongings. I have pictures and video of the car on fire in the highway. The police and the fire department responded to my 911 call and they were able to confirm that the fire did not start because of any traffic accident. We have access to the car and the fuel injectors for inspection if necessary.  INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
