I own a 2017 acura mdx. The VIN is [xxx]. On sunday january 13, 2019 my wife was pulling into our drive way when she noticed smoke coming from under the hood. She got our kids out of the car just before the car burst into flames. It?s amazing no one was hurt. The car, however, is completely destroyed. The fire destroyed our other car in the driveway, the garage door, the gutters, windows, the front door and a large part of the roof.
