What owners wrote

Smoke was noticed inside the car while I was driving on a rural freeway in the blue mountains of oregon. The source of the smoke appeared to be the rear passenger set, right side. I pulled over. When I opened the door on the right side of the car, a large plum of smoke erupted from the rear seat. I then noticed a black, burned hole in the seat measuring about 10in x 10in. As quickly as it began, the combustion stopped. After a 20-minute wait the seat cooled off and I was able to proceed.

Car brakes hard all the sudden, almost cause me a accident, I clean the sensor thinking it qas dirt is doing the same thing. Also when that happens the center screen goes off I lose the radio. I have to turn off the car and on again.
