“On october 20, 2020 I was driving my 2019 Ford Mustang 5.0 gt to work. As I was driving down the highway, I began to smell a burning plastic odor. It got stronger so I pulled my car over on the shoulder to inspect it. I got out and got down on my knees to check around my steering column, under my dash and driver seat but saw nothing however the odor of burning plastic got stronger. I went around to the passenger side and did the same inspection as I did on the drivers side. As I was doing this, I looked up and saw smoke coming from up under my driver's seat. …”
