ON 1/28/2017 MY DAUGHTER'S 2009 HONDA CRV CAUGHT ON FIRE IN OUR DRIVEWAY AND BURNED UNTIL IT WAS A TOTAL LOSS. IT ONLY HAD 87,000 MILES ON IT AND SEEMED TO BE RUNNING PERFECTLY THAT DAY. I HAD DRIVEN HER CAR FOR ONE HOUR (A 44 MILE TRIP), RETURNED HOME, TURNED OFF THE CAR, TOOK THE KEYS OUT OF THE IGNITION AND WENT INSIDE THE HOUSE. ABOUT TEN MINUTES LATER, ONE OF MY DAUGHTERS HEARD A CAR ALARM, WE LOOKED OUTSIDE AND SAW FLAMES SHOOTING OUT OF THE FRONT OF THE CAR. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT CAME AND PUT OUT THE FIRE, BUT IT WAS A TOTAL LOSS. THE FIREMEN SAID THAT IT STARTED NEAR THE BATTERY AREA, BUT WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT CAUSED IT THERE WAS NO SIGN OF ANY PROBLEM WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT. NO INDICATOR LIGHTS ON AND IT WAS RUNNING GREAT. THIS WAS A VERY FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE AS I COULD HAVE PARKED THE CAR IN OUR GARAGE OR IT COULD HAVE CAUGHT ON FIRE WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT HOME ON THE MASSACHUSETTS TURNPIKE, WHICH IS ISOLATED. THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG WAS REPLACED IN JUNE 2016 AS REQUIRED BY THE MAJOR AIRBAG RECALL AND THE CAR WAS WELL MAINTAINED.

APPARENTLY, OUR MODEL WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL OR CLASS ACTION SUIT. DEALERSHIP IS CHARGING $300 MINIMUM TO "DIAGNOSE" AND REPAIR.
