What owners wrote
Driving down the highway and the lights in the dash started to flash and the van stalled so we pulled over to check for a reason and none were found battery connections were clean and tight. Tried to restart the van and it started up fine then smoke started to fill the interior compartment and then flames emerge from the dash so we got a safe distance from the van and called the fire department. The van was completely destroyed by the fire.
Braun entervan handicapped van door/ramp tripped reset button, wheelchair person/drive could not reset the button (cannot get out to do so), in-floor ramp will not deploy manually. Something wrong with ramp release. Cannot deploy anyway from inside, cannot pull out ramp from inside need second person. This is wrong should be able to deploy ramp from inside, should be able to check fuses and reset button from driver area. Van on fire how do I get out.
