general problems of the 2000 Chrysler Cirrus

On may 31, 2017, I drove my 2000 Chrysler Cirrus car approx 2 miles to a store and parked in the store lot and then as I went to shut my car off, I saw alot of smoke coming from under my car hood so I shut car off and got out of my car and then lifted my hood and saw that my engine was in engulfed in flames so I immediately shut the hood and started to run away from my car. By then someone who saw all the smoke had called police to the scene and fire trucks came soon after the police arrived and fireman put the fire out. My car had to be towed to dom balducci's car care and was left there for an insurance adjuster to come and inspect the car which he did and after the inspection he claimed my car the 2000 Chrysler Cirrus as a total loss.

Tl- the contact owns a 2000 Chrysler Cirrus. The contact stated that after shutting the engine off and later attempting to restart the vehicle, the engine could not be restarted. The contact indicated that the failure had occurred on multiple occasions. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the fuel hose was faulty. The fuel hose was replaced but the failure continued to occur. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 63,000. Jft.

Car wasn't used for 3 weeks. Used car and began to smoke. Next day took to a repair shop & said it smelled like oil. Next day drove about 3 miles, parked car, 15 min later fire dept is putting out engine fire.
