problem #4

Mar 032007

Excursion 10-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 95,000 miles
My vehicle, a 2000 Ford Excursion limited, V-10 gasoline engine, was parked in my driveway on 3/3/07, locked and everything turned off and had been there for quite a while, when I heard a loud explosion and I ran outside to find the vehicle on fire under the hood on the driver's side. The hood release did not work and I tried to put out the fire with a water hose. When the fire department came, we pried the hood open and extenquished the fire. But everything was burned and the vehicle is a total loss.
