general problems of the 2012 Lincoln MKZ

Toned for a reported car fire, in the parking lot of shaw's supermarket, 625 meadow st. . E-6 responded with lights and siren to the scene. Upon arrival lpd capt. Tyler was on-scene directing fire to the effected vehicle. The driver was standing outside the vehicle, no smoke was showing. There appeared to be a burned area on the left side door rocker panel, front tip of the Lincoln illuminated rocker panel. The vehicle was parked at the time of the incident and the driver had just returned to the vehicle from shopping, when she opened the driver's side door and the compartment had smoke in it. The fuse boxes were checked and no fuses had been fused. The right side was checked for and heat and damage. The led Lincoln panel was removed and the wire ends were taped. It appeared that some moisture had made it's way through the gasket and migrated towards the power terminal of the led strip. Possible corrosion on the wire contacts could have been a contributing factor in this incident. I will be contacting the nhsta to leave an inquiry.
