description: EARLY AM ON 6/1/10 I WAS DRIVING TO MY CABIN IN THE COUNTRY AND HEARD A SOFT POPPING SOUND, STOPPED MY CAR AND SMOKE BEGAN FLOWING OUT ALL OPENING AROUND THE HOOD, WHEN I LOOKED UNDER THE CAR I SAW FIRE FALLING TO THE ROAD. I WENT TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AND OPENED THE DOOR ONLY TO FIND THAT AREA FILLED WITH TOXIC FUMES, SHUTTING THE DOOR I REALIZED ALL WAS HOPELESS EXCEPT TO GET AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE. WITHIN SECONDS MY CAR WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. I RAN AS FAST AS I COULD TO GET HELP. HAD I BEEN LESS ALERT, INACTIVE, LESS PROACTIVE I WOULD HAVE PROBABLY DIED. THE CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW IN NOV, 2008 AND HAD A LITTLE OVER 10,000 MILES. THERE WAS NO SMELL OF FUEL OR ANOTHER STRANGE ODOR. THE CAR WAS BURNED TOTALLY, WITH NOTHING REMAINING EXCEPT THE STEEL FRAME. *TR
