Narrative

At the end of a drive on XXX as i was pulling into the parking spot i smelled smoke in cabin. After parking and exiting the car i noticed smoke from left rear quarter panel above the wheel roughly. i opened the trunk and saw flames jut in wiring hole ahead of the trunk in rear left area. called the [XXX] and within a minute the acr was engulfed in flames and the whole back area and cabin burned down before the fire department turned off the fire. I beleive this might be related to safety recalls but all safety recalls on the vehicle were done by MBUSA INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
