2K+ later and the car was fixed.

Happened while driving on the highway. Dash went out and there was smoke in the rear view mirror out of the trunk. Opened the trunk and it flamed up quickly.

Curious if this problem could have been related to the recall at all.
A fire in the trunk related to a headlight harness? Are you serious? More likely that it was an improperly install battery with a loose connection.
