Parked my car at home at 3pm on 11/20/25. At 3:07 my neighbor banged on my front door & told me my car is on fire. The fire was under the hood with flames emerging in front of the windshield. Called 911 as we got to safety. Within minutes, the car was engulfed in flames & we watched as it went up in flames, with popping sounds, glass breaking, alarms going off, & the siding melting off the house, etc until the FD got there. They put out the fire, & checked the home- the car was a total loss, & the front of the house needed major repairs. We had a fire investigator come within days seeing that the fire was hottest on the drivers side. A report was submitted for insurance, as well as claims to

The problem occurred while the engine was on, but I was idle in the drive thru of a local pharmacy. The car had been placed in park, but engine still running while waiting at the window.
