| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: We parked in the driveway, gathered our things and went in to the house. the next morning i went to brush the snow off of the car and noticed the windshield was broken, i opened the driver door and discovered the whole dashboard was melted like a candle, we had just filled up the tank the previous day and were very lucky we didn't lose our home also. we figure the reason the car didn't become fully involved was because the windows were rolled up tight and it suffocated the flames, the car is still a complete loss. the wiring in that car had never been touched,cut or modified. there was no reason for this to happen except for a manufacturer defect. the way we see it mercury should owe us one car or blue book value. any help would be appreciated. *la |
