Narrative

Vehicle had been parked for approximately 2 days. With no one around the car alarm started, brake lights came on and rear wiper started to operate. Heavy electrical burning smell followed 2-3 minutes by smoke. 3-4 minutes later fire broke through the windshield. I was able to extinguish the fire with a fire extinguisher however the dash was completely destroyed and the car is a total loss.
