“On 5/27/2020 at 11:20 pm my 2014 Honda crv was parked in front of my home and suddenly combusted.first smoke appeared on the driver side then flames. It was last driven around 9:45pm that evening without issue. The vehicle has no history of physical or mechanical malfunction. The incident set off my ring bell camera since it motion sensitive (will provide footage if requested).”

A deer came out quickly from the driver's side of the car and hit our new Honda CR-V. The driver's side was quite caved in and my airbag deployed. I was in the passenger's side. My husband's airbag did not. He hit the steering wheel with his shoulder. We were quite shook up and sore afterward. …”
