What owners wrote
My foot became stuck between the brake pedal and the accelerator, because it was dark and there was no lighting I couldn't see how to remove my foot and the car destroyed a motel.
On 3/24/06 while driving my excursion the cruise control & speedometer stopped working , the check engine and ABS light came on and the overdrive indicator light started flashing. On 3/26/06 while watching TV with my wife, a local off duty firefighter stated pounding on my front door, when I opended the door I noticed my dream truck in flames in my driveway. The truck was a total loss, also have damage to my deck, the siding on my house and the wheels on my bbq grill melted.
