At 1 am on a Sunday morning the horn went off in our vehicle sitting in the driveway. We opened the driver side door and found a fire in side the vehicle. The driver side was fully engulfed. My wife phoned the fire dep. and i managed to put out the fire in the car. The vehicle was just sitting in the drive way. We where extremely lucky that the horn went off and the car was not in the garage, or this could have been much worst. I do believe now never put a car in your garage, because you never know when your car go's up in flames. I have written Ford, but I doubt I will hear from them.
