Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On april 6 2006 at 1:30 am i pulled into my parking space. i noticed that there was smoke coming from under the hood of my car. my boyfriend to take a look. when he opened the hood there was a fire. we tired to put it out but had no success so a resident called the fire department and they came to control the fire. until now we don't know what cause the fire. as i was checking on safety recalls we came across this web site and read up on a recall campaign-(coolant system durability 1995 to 1999 my land rover range rover). if this is the cause of the fire to my vehicle shouldn't (land rover) be responsible for our damage? looking for to hearing from you and settling this matter. sincerely yours. *jb
