Complaint for Kia Sedona 2003

Complaint about ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Consumer Complaint:
ON THE MORNING OF 6/21/05, I DOUBLE PARKED MY CAR ACROSS THE STREET FROM MY HOME FOR STREET CLEANING. I WAS INSIDE MY HOUSE @ 10 MINUTES WHEN A NEIGHBOR TOLD ME THERE WAS SMOKE COMING FROM MY CAR. I WENT TO THE CAR AND SAW FLAMES COMING FROM UNDER THE AREA UNDER THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE DASHBOARD BY THE BRAKE/GAS PEDALS. CALLED THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND THE FIRE WAS PUT OUT. ACCORDING TO THE CLAIMS INVESTIGATOR AND THE BODY SHOP THE CAR IS AT, THE FIRE CAME FROM THE FUSE BOX OF THE VEHICLE. I UNDERSTAND THAT SEVERAL FIRES SIMILAR TO THIS HAVE STARTED IN OTHER 2003 KIA SEDONAS AND WANTED TO REPORT THE SITUATION.

Date of Incident:
20050621

Vehicle was involved in a fire.
