I owned a 94 Pontiac Bonneville from 1998-2005. When I was stopped at a light, the dashboard caught on fire. By the time I safely got out of the car, it was engulfed in flames and totaled.It had 143,000 miles on it. The fire dept. said it was an electrical problem under the hood. Has anybody had this misfortune w/a Bonneville or other car, for that matter?

It happens occasionaly more than likely it was caused by previous work done over the years that caused a short and the wires to melt together. It happens.
So unless you have varifiable proof it was done by a previous mechanic, you are how they say SOL.

no, but I just wanted to say I am glad you made it out safely and I am so sorry about your car.
Hope the New Year is good to you.
