She reported being fearful for her safety when the car suddenly caught fire. Further details about the incident are available, including the judge's account of what happened. The judge's experience with the dealership's response was also unsatisfying.
The car was serviced at a dealership before the fire started. The judge had just left the dealership when the incident occurred.
