Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“My 2001 Ford f-150 pickup truck caught fire last night at 5pm on sunday, august 10th, 2014. We had only driven it one mile that day to our church, had parked it at about 4:45pm and went into church. Before 5pm we were notified to come outside. I went out to discover that my truck was on fire. A policewoman was there before me, probably from the detail that directs church traffic. She prevented me (anyone) from approaching the vehicle. She told me she had alerted the fire department. There were explosions when the tires popped and, I assume, the when air conditioner vented its gas. …”
