It's too hot, called a police and a fireman!
So my car caught on fire today.
I was at my friend's apartment and I get a call from the police saying my car caught on fire in the garage of the apartment complex. I immediately went downstairs and saw firemen and cops around my car. Apparently, my car caught on fire from a mechanic leaving rags inside the engine bay when I got my ignition coil replaced. The firemen pried open my hood and smashed my driver window. 😕 Gonna take it to the mechanic to get an estimate tomorrow and hopefully it didn't do too much damage. Just glad that I wasn't in the car when this happened. Who knows how bad it could've gotten if it wasn't put out away right away. Before and after Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Sucks about your car. You said your car was in the garage when it caught fire. Wondering if there was any damage to the structure or other adjacent cars. I'm sure your insurance will sort things out. Good luck with your car.

Did the mechanic's name start with a V?

This is awful.
 Was it a Toyota dealership? Hopefully a shop of some kind at least and not a backyard mechanic. Negligent and unprofessional regardless. Hope everything gets worked out alright.
