Thats BS, he just looking for a payout and a free new car.

Not trying to be a jerk, but I have to ask: were any payments late or owing on either, or both, of the losses stated in this story?

It’s a 10 year old Jeep Grand Cherokee charging a new Note 7. Even odds either could have caused the fire.

Sounds like someone trying to get something for free from Samsung. Just like the Honda gas pedal scammers back several years ago.
