NHTSA complaint: 2001 FORD EXPEDITION — ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
THERE WAS BASICALLY NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR, MY BOYFRIEND DROVE IT BACK FROM CORPUS CHRISTI THAT SAME DAY AND THERE WAS NO OVERHEATING WHATSOEVER. AT AROUND 930 PM. WE WERE INSIDE OUR HOME AND HEARD POPPIN NOISES. WE OPENED THE DOOR AND THE VEHICLE IN TOTAL AND COMPLETE FLAMES. WE CALLED THE FIRE DEPT AND THEY PUT OUT THE FIRE. IT TOOK A GOOD 20 MINUTES TO PUT DOWN THE FIRE. THANK GOD WE WEREN'T DRIVING THE TRUCK AND NO ONE GOT INJURED. I HAVE 3 CHILDREN , 5, 2, AND 1 YEAR OLD. THERE FIRE DESTROYED THE ENGINE, NO WINDSHIELD , AND THE TIRES ARE MELTED IN THE FRONT. ALL THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE IS DESTROYED. BESIDES THAT, MY CHILDREN CARSEATS AND OTHER PERSONAL PROPERTY WERE DESTROYED. *TR
