 I drove my 1992 ford e-350 15 passenger van to indiana on friday. i used the cruise control on the highway. i arrived at 5:00 pm. and parked. at about 1 a.m. i moved the vehicle to a flatter area, so i could sleep in it at the campground. shortly before 4 a.m. i awoke to a smell and saw flames shooting over the windshield, coming from the engine. luckily i was able to get out of the vehicle, which burned completely in minutes. the local fire department responded. i contacted ford and i am now waiting for a written response. i later learned of the recall on faulty speed deactivation switches. there are no reported recalls on my vin through ford.*jb
