What owners wrote
While driving on the route smoke start coming out from air / heat vents. I stopped the car, got out of opened frond hood, but was nothing there. Walked to passenger door and saw fire where passenger keeps legs. Got my paperwork from the car and by the time I run away from the car the whole thing was ball of fire.
Submitted repair copies for refund in september 2015. Follow up calls to fca stated check in mail, check has been canceled, someone will follow up with you. Today february 18, 2016 and still told someone will contact me about refund.
