| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I was driving my 2007 ford focus purchased it new, currently has 19,000 miles on it. while driving down the road today smoke started to fill the passenger compartment. i pulled over and looked under the hood and my engine was on fire. wires melting all over the place, flames and smoke coming out of the alternator. this was a safety hazard, the smoke could've over come me or my passengers, plus the fire itself could have caused injuries if i had driven a block or two down the road. it was towed to the nearest ford dealer, but it wont get looked at until next week. my car is under warranty. *tr |
