Bad news in Thawville Left front brake fire on the 98 Suburban
My daughter called and said the 98 Suburban caught fire last night on her way home from work.
She got the fire put out but I have no idea how much damage was done.
I'm guessing the flex line collapsed or the caliper stuck.
Everythinmg was new sometime last spring or summer.
Calipers, flex lines and ball joints came from Napa. I've been having some problems with Napa parts last year and quit using them after that vehicle. A little to late maybe.
Can anybody think of anything else that may have caused the fire other than the vehicle should have been shut down immediately upon noticing there was some kind of problem?
I'm guessing about $2000 damage minimum based on what was described to me.
