| Truck was parked, turned off, and parked in my driveway. approximately 3:45am i heard glass break and looked out the window to see the inside of the truck on fire. i ran and grabbed 2 fire extinguishers and a water hose; and i put the fire out. the truck is totalled now. ford asked me to tow it into the nearest ford dealer (which i paid for) asap so they could inspect it since my truck recall was not yet fixed per ford's system. the dealership just said it's not ford's fault even though the fire happened the same way numerous other recall fires occurred. i do not believe them, so i have begun a lawsuit against them if my truck is not replaced by ford. *tr | |||
