What owners wrote

My caprice classic was in my driveway and had not been moved for about 1 hour. After an hour from my car being moved, my car caught on fire. The dash was engulfed in flames when I was made aware that my car was even on fire from a neighborhood kid. I quickly tried to put it out and did so. By the time it had died out and the smoke was gone, the entire middle and partial left side of the dash had melted to the floor of the car. My car did not have the keys in the ignition and nothing was left on.
