sounds like shit was pretty intense
she pulled over on the side of the highway and some dude stopped and had enough water to put the fire out
now i probably have to buy her a new car =(

not sure yet, it's being looked at
early guesses are either oil leak or transmission issue

I mean, i'm not usually this guy, but maybe you should call a lawyer, there's something clearly wrong and unsafe if the vehicle caught fire, unless it was like super old with 250k miles on it or something.

I remember seeing a Beetle go up like that once. Friend and I were on the freeway and we were passing just as black smoke started to billow out of the open hood. Didn't see anyone inside or near the car, and we didn't have anything that could help suppress a fire, so we just went on our way. Couple hours later on our way back, the car was burnt clear down to the rims and frame.

it's a 7.5 year old kia sportage with less than 60k miles on it
she's been the sole owner
i've got some beef but i'm going to see how the dealership wants to tackle this first
either way she's getting something new

she's liking a land rover discovery sport, a merc benz glc thing or an audi q5

his warranty will probably cover it regardless and if she wasnt injured not sure why you'd call a lawyer

People would have you believe that the accusation of racism is more offensive than ACTUAL racism.

Because she was on the phone asking what to do next as the car burst into flames.

and yeah I'm kinda pissed she didnt take any pics at all except some burned grass
She does terribly in panic situations
Apparently there were literal flames shooting from underneath the car out behind while she was doing 65 in the highway

they're saying it looks like a small hole in the side of the engine
likely full coverage under powertrain warranty but they have to wait on corporate california approval to do more
