A couple things here. First of all, there doesn't seem to have been any conclusive evidence that the leaves went through the brake ducts before catching fire at the brakes. The fire was in the right rear corner of the trunk. But more importantly, aren't brake ducts very different than what my question was in reference to?
This story is very interesting, but possibly aside from this specific one, nothing like this has ever occurred due to brake ducts or side vents.
