1998 Honda CR-V Owner Comments

I recently read the press regarding fires starting underneath Honda crvs. Last year, following an oil change, I was stopped at a light and heard people screaming at me from their cars-there was a fire under my car. I quickly pulled over and, by then, the fire was out. I immediately drove back to my mechanic-they examined the car, which still smelled of smoke, but they were stumped. The garage is very reputable and aaa rated. I recently read another article that indicated NHTSA reopened an investigation of this problem. My car is a 1998-I believe this problem is more widespread than the 2003-2004 models. I'm extremely concerned whenever my oil is changed. This problem should be rectified by Honda-quickly.
