take a look at some of the pics of the front.. our best guess is that the wires tore through a bunch of wiring harnesses - starting an electrical fire

from the looks of it, the front part of the car were the cables are at didnt catch fire, looks more like something around the throttle body area caught fire

I'm not buying this 'tapped my brakes and got sideways'.

I'm glad you're OK, but hopefully you'll drive more carefully- you can't control the people around you and the streets aren't a racetrack.

Is that to me or the OP??
If to me take note I'm not the only driver of my car...even though I came close to a couple of fender benders due to my stupidity of listening to the "shot-gunners" and "backseat losers!" And the lack of guddy'up'ed'ness by the 4EAT.

Also just out of curiosity....and I'm to lazy to go back to quote the fellar....why would the doors not open due to a fire?
