Console caught on fire

I would also be careful saying anything more about it here.

 

Keep us posted.

Likely will be with your insurance to start - who should almost certainly bring out an origin & cause (O&C) investigator to determine the cause of fire.

I would most certainly ask for a copy. Toyota may or may not agree with the findings - or they may not be able to determine a cause.

My personal opinion though this one they should be able to trace a cause to. Not like many I’ve seen where all that’s left are ashes and a frame.

Even though source of ignition wasn’t at those charging cables - will not surprise me if they are the cause. Just seen way way too many fires from those things. Of course have also seen more than a few batteries and other electrical components responsible too.

Short in a switch/knob on climate control ? Seems to be pretty hot in that area.

 

I’m betting that coffee was too hot.

I know a lawyer who has experience in cases like this. His name is Jackie Chiles.

 

Haha

……and your username …..even more lmfao

 

Could have been fun with the fuel tank / fuel line recall.

Just as others have said - Glad you are ok OP. Keep us posted, hopefully you get a complete solution and quickly.

 

Going to need to see the stats on "most car fires are started by a joint or weed pipe" I am going to call bull crap on that one 100%. What an insane thing to try to say.

That women actually had her gentiles are burned up and stuff. I always joked about it too, but about a year ago I read an article that explained it a bit more.

 

Nuts
Imagine if it was summer time
This could have been so much worse

 

Simply insane.

 

OK, just gentiles getting burned up. Good thing it wasn't her Jews.

 

got me good there, I'm not even going to edit it.

 

The next recall?

 

@justin.hutton83

sorry this happened to you but I am glad it didn’t happen while you were driving or had someone in the vehicle that couldn’t readily escape. I hope it all works out in your favor

 

Is that the Tesla style screen?
