    Vehicle was in motion, on a country rd. There was a smell, almost like if windshield washer fluid spills, then smoke from under the hood. Then flames on the right front, under the hood. I pulled over, turned the car off, grabbed my purse and ran. 2 good samaritans pulled over and just happened to have a fire extinguisher and were able to put it out. The whole right headlight was melted away.
