My cousin purchased a used 1995 camry last year and while driving down the road she noticed the engine compartment was smoking so she raced to pull over one block further from where it started & at the stopping point and shutting the engine down it gulfed in flames. 2 kids in back seat she does every effort to save them. However the notorious door handles inside and out were broken she had to pray to get power back on roll the window down and grab the exterior broken handle to exit. During this process she is on fire but exits to save the children unharmed. My cousin is severely burned on her one arm body and legs. Beyond repair of satisfaction but she deals with the suffer. The dealer is refusing compensation.
