At approximately 3 pm on the reported date the vacuum pump operating the right rear headrest to my 1995 Mercedes Benz E300D special edition got stuck or the relay malfunctioned, causing the pump to run continuously, building up friction and causing a fire that completely burnt the inside rear section of my vehicle. Car was parked and ignition was off at the time of the fire. Fire was reported to the sandy springs fire department and investigated by their fire investigator. Insurance adjuster attributed cause of fire to failed vacuum pump. Car was declared a total loss and I allowed my insurer took possession of the vehicle.
