I was driving and all of a sudden my seat started to catch fire. I panicked. I hopped out and had to suffocate the fire out by closing the windows. I took it to bmw and there was nothing they could do, i felt like they didn't really try, so i left the car in the parking lot for now because they said the damage from the fire totaled my car. *jb
