| Driving vehicle, heard crackling noise from rear compartment, smelled smoke, power sun roof opened by itself, entire vehicle filled with smoke, fire observed behind back seat, pulled over and ran from vehicle, car fully erupted in flames, entire inside of car was fully consumed. contacted acura and they sent a district mgr from american honda motor co. to examine vehicle and take pictures. i was told that i would hear something in a few days. a month has went by and the customer service department indicated that i would be hearing from someone but they do not know when or who. the person assigned case was a david hombre,1-800-382-2238. he indicated that if i wanted any more information to have my lawyer contact their l&a dept. no phone# just an address. i believe this is a very serious problem. while i was able to get out of car, i have two small children and if i had to have removed them from rear restraints i am not sure there would have been enough time prior to car fully erupting. it happened very quickly with only a minutes warning at best. very dangerous!! | |||
