2000 TOYOTA CAMRY CAUGHT ON FIRE AUGUST 7TH, 2018. I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND MY RADIO KEPT GOING ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING, I NOTICED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SO I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT AND PARKED THE CAR. I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND STARTED TO SMELL SMOKE. I OPENED THE HOOD AND THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WAS ON FIRE ON THE RIGHT SIDE NEAR THE BATTERY. I WAS ABLE TO GET A FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND PUT THE FIRE OUT BUT I HAVE SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE. I HAVE NOT SEEN A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE BUT MY CAR SHOULD NOT START ON FIRE. I SUBMITTED A CLAIM TO TOYOTA (CLAIM# 180808-000043) ASKING IF THERE IS A TECHNICAL BULLETIN. TOYOTA SENT THEIR INSPECTOR AND HE NOTED THE STARTER FAILED TO DISENGAGE FROM FLYWHEEL CAUSING FIRE. THE STARTER KEPT RUNNING BURNING IT OUT AND ALSO BURNING THE POSITIVE CABLE TO THE BATTERY. TOYOTA DID NOT SHARE A COPY OF THE REPORT WITH ME. THE DAMAGE WAS SEVERE ENOUGH TO WRITE OFF THE CAR WITH ONLY 95,000 MILES ON IT. THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. WHY WOULD MY CAR STARTER CATCH ON FIRE LIKE THIS?

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON AND OFF FOR OVER 2 YEARS. I HAVE HAD BOTH CATALYTIC CONVERTERS REPLACED, A NEW GAS CAP AND EVERY OTHER ISSUE THE GARAGES HAVE TOLD ME ARE CAUSING THE PROBLEM. WITH EACH FIX THE LIGHT GOES OFF FOR ABOUT A WEEK AND THEN COMES BACK ON. TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS ALWAYS TELL ME IT IS BECAUSE I DO NOT TIGHTEN MY GAS CAP, BUT I TIGHTEN IT UNTIL IT CLICKS. I AM NOT LOSING ANY MILEAGE WITH THE LIGHT ON OR HAVING ANY OTHER DIFFICULTIES WITH CAR, BUT I CAN NOT PASS THE EMISSION TEST WITH THE LIGHT ON. I FEEL THAT THE LIGHT IS ON BECAUSE OF A GLITCH IN THE SYSTEM OR A DEFECT, BECAUSE I AM NOT EXPERIENCING ANY OF THE NORMAL PROBLEMS THAT COME WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME. *KB

MY CAMRY HAS AN ADDED SPOILER, NOT SURE WEATHER IT WAS FACTORY OR DEALER INSTALLED. THE BRAKE LIGHT THAT IS NORMALLY IN THE REAR WINDOW WAS LEFT HANGING IN THE TRUNK AS IT WAS SUPERSEDED BY THE ONE IN THE SPOILER. THE BULB WAS LEFT INSTALLED AS IT CAUSED A BRAKE LIGHT FAULT ON THE DASH WHEN DISCONNECTED. LAST WEEK WHEN I HAD A FULL TRUNK WE STARTED TO SMELL SMOKE AND COULD NOT FIGURE WHERE IT WAS COMING FROM. WE FOUND THAT A CARDBOARD BOX IN THE TRUNK HAD COME IN CONTACT WITH THE UNUSED BULB WHICH HAD BURNED A HOLE THROUGH THE BOX WHEN BRAKING ,BUT FORTUNATELY IT DID NOT IGNITE. I WILL CONTACT THE DEALER TOMORROW TO SEE IF THEY CAN RELOCATE THE BULB TO A SAFE LOCATION. *TT
