WE WERE INVOLVED IN A FOUR CAR CRASH. WE WERE THE THIRD CAR. THE TRAFFIC WAS A LITTLE HEAVY AND STOP AND GO. THE TWO CARS IN FRONT OF US STOPPED FAST AND WE DID TOO. THEN WE LOOKED IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR AND SAW A HONDA ODYSSEY COMING AT US AT ABOUT 35-40 MPH. THE DRIVER SLAMMED INTO THE REAR OF OUR CAR. THE CAR STARTED ON FIRE AS SOON AS WE WERE HIT. I WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND I COULD SEE THE FLAMES AND SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE CAR. MY HUSBAND JUMPED OUT OF THE CAR AND I COULDN'T OPEN MY DOOR. MY HUSBAND THEN HIT THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON HIS SIDE AND THEN CAME AROUND TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AND GOT ME OUT OF THE CAR. I WAS CRYING AND TERRIFIED. A BUSINESS MAN CAME FROM ACROSS THE STREET AND TRIED TO PUT THE FIRE OUT WITH A FIRE EXTINGUISHER. HE HAD TO RETURN BACK TO HIS BUSINESS AND OUR NEW CAR WAS STILL ON FIRE. THE POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENT CAME AND PUT OUT THE FIRE. THE CAR WAS THEN TOWED AWAY. I WENT TO THE HOSPITAL. I WAS SORE FROM WHERE THE SEATBELT WAS AND FROM BEING SO BADLY JERKED BACK AND FORTH. I AM STILL RECEIVING SOME MEDICAL CARE. THE DRIVER OF THE HONDA ODYSSEY WAS FOUND AT FAULT AND ISSUED A TICKET. WE HAVE YET TO FIND OUT WHY THIS CAR STARTED ON FIRE. NO ONE AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP COULD OR WOULD ANSWER THAT QUESTION. CAN YOU FIND THE ANSWER THIS QUESTION? IS THERE A DEFECT IN THIS CAR? THREE OLDER VEHICLES IN THIS ACCIDENT AND THE ONLY CAR THAT STARTS ON FIRE IS OUR BRAND NEW 2013 FORD EDGE WITH 5,000 MILES ON IT. FORD SHOULD STEP U
