On March 30, 2014, at approximately 3:00 P.M. (pst) my 2000 Ford F-150 unexpectedly caught on fire. The truck was stationary in my driveway when suddenly black smoke and fire could be seen coming out of the driver side wheel well. The fire engulfed the driver side of the engine compartment melting all the plastic, wiring and the air intake area. The fire melted everything near the master cylinder and the cruise control housing.

In heavy rain the wipers and other electrical functions quit while driving - caused by a windshield leak onto the GEM module and fuse box. This windshield leak is a common problem that Ford knows about on 1997 thru 2000 Ford F150 pickups.
