What owners wrote
The consumer turned the vehicle off, and nearly 2 hours later, the horn began "blaring" and then the vehicle caught fire under the hood. Around 2 months before the fire the cruise control stopped working. Never had repaired.. The cruise starting working for about a half hour one day then stopped working again. Then the brake lights went out. One fuse was blown. Replaced 4 fuses and they kept blowing with a flash. On the fifth fuse I started the truck up and it took the fuse without blowing.
Car was parked, car caught on fire do to recall 05s28, put out myself. Was never informed about recall because I was second owner.
