So I took my truck in to get it scanned due to a miss at idle. They scanned it and drove it 3 times but said they couldn't do a contribution test until they got it hot. I would say they got it hot enough. Do I have a case?



My beautiful truck in gone.

 

Wow, sorry to see that.
I imagine it's to early to tell what happened to start the fire?

I hope the shop was insured.

Good luck.

What the?!! Wow...any idea what happened? man that is sad. I have the same year but almost twice the mileage. That truck looked like it was really nice. Hope you get good compensation!

 

That suck man.
I'm gonna say it never got the cruise control recall

 

OH WOW...... sorry to see this.

 

That a a possibility isn't it?

My truck hasn't been doe yet. But I leave my cruise disconnected because of that.

We're the cruise control deal if it's removable I'd like to my truck got the recall never replaced but my steering colum is missing all the wires for it but the recall said it can start a fire without the truck running

 

Wow
Btw my mac scanner i can do a cont. test hot or cold guess what it works. I beleive they are going to have to file a claim with ins company. Sorry to hear

 

To do a cct
Oil temp have to be above 160*
A/C has to be off

 

Man that sucks. I really hate that for you. I would make sure I got enough from that shop or their insurance to replace that truck with one just like it, and as clean or cleaner than yours!!

 

What a truly sad day...very sorry

 

Yeah I'm truly sorry for you looks to have been a good lookin truck

 

That is horrid to see. Luckily, nobody was injured or worse, but I would sure be looking for an explanation about what happened. Hopefully insurance will make it right. The challenge is always finding such a clean rig. Good luck.

 

Wow! That sucks! Yet another reason I don't let another mechanic touch my truck. I'm curious to hear about the cruise control recall though. If that turns out to be the cause, I wonder if you will have a case with the shop since it was a known problem that never got fixed?

 

Man that'll ruin your day in a hurry. Did the fire start in the cab or under the hood?

If it turns out to be the CC, you might be screwed, idk. Hopefully it was something the shop did.
