Default Thanks

I'm happy I found this thread I have a 2020 50th widebody and was freaking out about a plastic burning smell. I checked everything under the hood and then I read this thread looked under the car and seen that a plastic bag had wrapped around my exhaust pipe underneath and has been melting for 2 days 😅
