I was driving down the road when my son said he smelled something and made pull over. There were what I thought were small flames on the floor so i dumped my water on them, then i realized the seat itself was melting and dripping stuff on the floor. then the seat went up. Very shortly after that the car was completely engulfed and is now a total loss.

After I adjust my seat back support and release the lever. It will still pop back like it was never locked in position and the whole seat seems like it leans to the right.
