Battery was leaking battery acid. Post that was hooked up to cable fell off, and that was why vehicle wouldn't start. Electrical socket and brake line had some paint damage. Consumer took vehicle to the dealership, and mechanic told him that the vehicle was out warranty.
Battery is leaking onto right side steering mechanism. Cause is unknown. Please provide further information.
My wife and I were driving down a city street at about 30mph when we smelled smoke, I pulled over and saw flames shooting from the interior of the driver door panel. I tore open the door panel and saw that the electric outside mirror control was on fire. I beat the fire out with a towel, after the smoked cleared I started the engine again and the control burst into flames again, at this point I severed the wiring harness.
Vehicle went in for repair, not repaired, still doesn't work. Could not pass texas safety inspection. This is a serious safety issue, horn allows other drivers to know where you are, does no good when the horn doesn't work.
Battery failed. Yh
