Started car, drove less than a mile down the road and got a big cloud of smoke inside the car. Pulled over and made it to the passenger side where the back panel was already bubbling with fire. Called 911 but the car was completely engulfed in flames within minutes. Still don't know what caused the fire just glad I got out alive.

Electrical wiring below the driver's seat had a short, causing the seat to catch on fire. Dealer was notified by consumer.*ak *bf
Wiring touching metal under dash.
Started vehicle,key was not inserted completely,pulled key out,motor remained started.
My transmission went out I took it in to have it looked at it was still under warrenty they rebuilt it, and at that time I had the dealer look at the fuse problem they said it was some wire near the seat track soo they replaced it. It worked for a little while well the warranty is no longer valid and the fuse continues to blow I have to put a new fuse in every time I need to move the seat I only get one shot at it for it will blow in a few seconds I have'nt taken it back.
Head gasket blewout, engine replcd,trans. Replcd 4x problem still there,rear defrost wire caught on fire,A/C on&off,seat gear does not work,horn does not work,air flow sensor replaced after 5,000 miles,
Ignition switch where you put key in does not work properly. Many times its hard to get the key in and out. Other times its very hard to get the car to start. I have talked to many many people with the same car and they all have this problem!!
While driving on highway at 65 vehicle would stall and shut completely down without any warning. After about 30 or longer it will start back up again. Took to mechanic, and they put in a fuel filter, and did a compression check. Everything looked good, but problem with stalling was still there.
Stall after starting while parked.hot weather.service/engine tune-up failed to reveal the cause. The vehicle stalling sporatically continues ; at least six times. On one occasion ,it had started,but then tried to stall in a traffic situation.
Under the hood fire due to alterator shorting out. Dealer/manufacturer notified. Feel free to provide further details.
