While driving down road early in morning approx 2 miles from house I just left from my 2004 Jetta shuts down total loss of all power I pulled car over in a church parking lot I smelled smoke and could see smoke coming from fire wall I raised hood and pulled battery cable off I could see smpoke filling inside of my car walked around to driver door to get my phone and I seen fuse box on fire. Another vehicle stopped to help me and he approached my car and then called police ,full flames were coming from my car within 5 min so I stood back and watched my car burn . Fire dept showed up and put fire out my car is a total loss. Ive had issues with alternator,fuel pump,air bag light, headlights are really dim even on bright. Nothing but issues with this car since I got it. 115. 000 miles only on this car . So many isues I can see why its low milage.

My key has been difficult to turn in the ignition to start the car recently. Yesterday I had the same problem but the car started. After driving the car the key would not turn to turn off the car. No matter what I can not get the key out of the ignition. I only got the motor to shut off because my son knew to pull a fuse and then take off a battery cable. This ignition problem is serious and is a safety issue if you can't turn off the car.
