Thanks for passing this along. We have been in the auto repair business for over 30 yrs. I don't think we have ever heard of this before. By the way, Jeff White? We have a friend named Jeff White who we haven't heard from for years. He used to deal in cars. Where is Logan City?From: Anne <lauraanneevans@...> ; Moderator <-owner >; lianne

Good advice. This is Jeff White's vehicle- a friend of ours. He is the Light and Power Director of Logan City.Here's something you may want to look at if you leave electronic devices plugged into your car's accessory outlets: Hi All, As some of you may know, we had a pretty scary incident recently. Attached are

pictures of

what remains of our 2007 Suburban. We are all okay but I wanted to warn everyone not to make the same mistake I did. This fire resulted from leaving an Iphone charger/docking station plugged into the car outlet. It overheated and started a fire, while parked in our garage. PLEASE unplug anything you have in your car outlets once you turn off your car! We were VERY fortunate that we accidentally found the fire, at 11pm, before going to bed and before it spread to the house. Feel free to pass this along to anyone you want. Better safe than sorry.
