My car died, after pulling over I noticed smoke coming from the back left seat. Called fire dept. They said rear wire harness caught on fire. Towed to matt Ford, buckner, mo. Of which they said there was no recall, I called Ford 1-800-392-3673 and was told recall 99M30 might cover it, but it is up to the servie manager at Ford. Matt Ford will not look at it until my insurance adjuster looks at it. Please help!!! could I get a copy of that recall" and how"
