THE PASSENGER SEAT HEATING ELEMENT GOT SO HOT THAT IT STARTED TO SMOKE, BURNT THROUGH THE LEATHER AND BURNT MY WIFE'S COAT AND LEG. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
CAR WAS TRAVELING 35 MPH WHEN THE BRAKES SUDENLY STARTED SLOWING IT DOWN AND DASH LIGHTS WERE FLASHING. WITH THE CAR STOPPED I SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTARTED THE CAR AND WORKED AS IT SHOULD HAVE. A FEW DAYS LATER THE CAR HAD BEEN DRIVEN AND PARKED WHEN I LATER WENT TO START THE CAR AND NOTHING WORKED. THE PARKING BRAKE WAS ON AND IT COULD NOT BE TURNED OFF. AFTER BEING TOWED TO THE DEALER, I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM WITH ALL THE ELECTRICAL MALFUNTIONS WAS A LOOSE GROUND. *TR
