My car caught fire last night and burned up while turned off, parked and unattended. Another similiar situation occurred: Boise --- a vehicle recall you may not have heard about that could put you in danger. Imagine your car is parked in your garage and a fire erupts under the hood of it -- spreading to your home. It's a national safety recall announced by Mitsubishi a few months ago that we found has affected many drivers since then and now possibly one local family. A boise home caught on fire last month and fire investigators say the cause was undetermined, but they say it started in or near a Mitsubishi lancer parked in the garage -- a car that is included in the recall. Mitsubishi initiated the recall of certain crossovers and cars a few months ago and has added additional vehicles to its list since then. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says the vehicles contain a defective cruise control switch that could lead to a fire at any time, even while the vehicle is turned-off, parked and unattended. Across the country there are stories about the vehicles catching on fire. In Minnesota, a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer evolution parked in an attached garage started a fire and burned a home to the ground. In orlando, Florida, a family lost everything when their house burned down because their 2009 Mitsubishi outlander burst into flames. Boise fire investigators say a 2008 Mitsubishi lancer was parked inside the garage and they were unable to pinpoint where the fire started because the hood of the car, the engine and the front of the garage were so badly damaged. The recall includes more than 5 vehicle models built from 2006 to now. Mitsubishi motors says it has contacted owners to notify them of any recalls.
