Your form is a little difficult to complete for a complaint of this nature. The problem lies with the floor mats. They are so light weight that they tend to shift when one enters or departs the vehicle. They also shift when the vehicle is in motion, due to the movement of the foot between the brakes and the gas. Even the retention post for the drivers floor mat fails to keep it in place. It tends to rotate to the right and move forward toward the pedals. This is a problem that could cause an accident if the floor mat were to jam either the brake or gas pedal. Thank you for your time.
While driving the air conditioner failed and then the vehicle shut down. Driver was able to restart vehicle after approximately 10 minutes. The next morning, a tow truck driver cranked the vehicle and drove it onto the tow truck. Before the vehicle was secured to the tow truck, it began to smoke from under the engine area and suddenly it burst into flames.
