NHTSA complaint: 1997 FORD F-150 — ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING:FRONT UNDERHOOD
VEHICLE WAS PARKED AT APPOX. 11PM ON MAY 9TH, AT APPROX. 12:30 AM I WAS AWAKENED BY THE SOUND OF A HORN BLOWING , I LOOKED OUT THE WINDOW AND I SEEN THAT MY TRUCK WAS ON FIRE, A NIEGHBOR LADY HAD DRIVEN BY AND NOTICED IT AND WENT HOME TO CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. SHE SAID THAT IT WAS BURNING ON THE DRIVERS SIDE BY THE TIRE, THAT IS WHY I THINK IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN AN ELECTRICAL SHORT, FOR THAT IS WHERE ALL THE MAIN ELECTRICAL FUSE BLOCKS ARE LOCATED.*AK
