I HAD AN UNFORTUNATE ACCIDENT OCCUR YESTERDAY WITH MY 1995 FORD BRONCO. ABOUT AN HOUR OR SO AFTER RETURNING HOME (VEHICLE PARKED IN DRIVEWAY), I NOTICED SMOKE AND FIRE POURING-OUT FROM UNDER ITS HOOD. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE WITH A NEARBY GARDEN HOSE, BUT THE VEHICLE IS A TOTAL LOSS. THE SAD THING IS THAT ALTHOUGH A 1995, IT HAD NEVER SEEN AN UPSTATE WINTER AND WAS AS CLOSE TO MINT AS IT GETS FOR A VEHICLE OF ITS AGE. THE 'HOT SPOT' APPEARS TO BE IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY OF THE MASTER CYLINDER, FOR WHICH FORD DID ISSUE A RECALL FOR A FAULTY CRUISE CONTROL HARNESS WHICH COULD RESULT IN A FIRE WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. IRONICALLY I DID HAVE THE RECALL WORK PERFORMED...... THOUGH THIS SEEMS AWFULLY COINCIDENTAL. *TR
