As I turned the ignition to start my car on morning, the drivers side door caught on fire and melted. The fire ceased as soon as I turned the car off. My car dealers which aren't being helpful at all, are not accepting any liability for this defect within Mitsubishi.today my dealer tells my its gonna cost me $130 more because the window was fried and doesn't work. This is ridiculous and I need some help..Mitsubishi doesn't understand the work..duty...thank you
