OT: F-150 on fire

So this afternoon I'm at work and this guy runs into the shop yelling for water then runs out I had no clue cause he never said what was going on. I ran out to see and his 04 F-150 had flames and smoke pouring out from under the hood. Turns out He just picked it up from the Ford dealer 10miles down the road after having the radiator, radiator support, front frame horn, bumper, headlight and fender replaced from an accident. The two tranny lines that run into the side of the radiator were clearly never clipped all the way in and spitting tranny fluid all over the drivers side of the engine. I couldn't imagine.....

I bet he comes out very well in this. I can't believe someone took the time to put the lines into the hole but never locked them in. Thats why I am glad I am the only one who works on my truck, not saying I don't make mistakes, but just saying.
