On august 16, 2017 I rented a 2017 ford edge from alamo at the savannah, ga airport. On august 18, 2017 while en route from savannah to charleston, sc I was stopped by a police officer on highway 17 near yamassee, sc. While on the shoulder with the car running but stationary, smoke began coming out of the car. Myself and my family evacuated and within 5-10 minutes the entire car was engulfed in flames. The policeman radioed for a fire truck but by the time the fire was put out, the entire car and all of its contents was destroyed.
