problem #1

Dec 072005

Camry 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 90,000 miles
The contact's daughter parked vehicle and pulled the key out of the ignition. The engine continued to run and later stopped on its own. A small amount of smoke came from under the hood. Afterwards, she inspected under the hood and discovered the battery cables melted between the battery and engine compartment area. The vehicle has not been seen by a dealer. There was no obvious evidence of a fire.
