2015 Lincoln MKC engine problems

On february 11, 2020 my 2015 lincoln mkc had been sitting stationary in my garage for 26 hours when the engine spontaneously caught fire. I opened my garage, smoke was pouring out and there were flames coming out of the hood at the windshield line. The car had just turned 40,000miles, was certified preowned, serviced at lincoln dealership where it was purchased. After the fire fighters left, the battery continued to smoke until a wire was disengaged.

The contact owns a 2015 Lincoln MKC. The contact stated that an independent mechanic had replaced the battery and the alternator twice due to battery drainage failure; however, the failure persisted. The contact stated that the vehicle required to be jumpstarted regularly. Additionally, the contact stated that the passenger's side running light and side-view mirror light, and the tailgate release button were inoperable.
