“On saturday, february 11, 2017, at approximately 4:30 pm, I had driven about 1/2 mile from home when I began to smell something burning. I was on a two-lane highway, in a 55 MPH zone (e. Colonial hwy, going from leesburg to hamilton). I looked around me, inside the car, and saw nothing that would produce that kind of smell. I wondered if I was smelling something outside. Then, within seconds of that thought, I started to see smoke rising, originating from under my left elbow. I was still driving, and could not see the source of the smoke. …”
NHTSA complaint #10954641, filed 2017-02, 110,000 miles“Smelt smoke in the car and realized it was coming from the drivers seat. The seat warmer overheated to the point it burnt thru the seat and was causing the smoke and you could see the wire was glowing red hot.”
