The new Samsung Galaxy Note 7s brought tragedy in a Florida family learned the hard way, over the Labor Day weekend.

Lydia Dornacher, of St. Petersburg, came home from a yard sale on Monday and was unloading her husband Nathan’s Jeep Grand Cherokee. While she was unloading, Nathan left his Note 7 in the center console of his vehicle to charge.

Lydia Dornacher said that she sent her 8 years old daughter, along with the family’s service dog, to get back in the vehicle because they were going to run more errands. She said that the dog knew something wrong was going to happen and when her husband looked outside and his Jeep was engulfed in flames.

St. Petersburg fire officials came to put out the fire. Nathan Dornacher said that he loved his vehicle and had put a lot of money into it. He will now have to find a new ride and a new cellphone.

Samsung said in a statement to the station that it was aware of the latest incident.

The company said,"We are aware of the incident and we are working with Mr. Dornacher to investigate his case and ensure we do everything we can for him. Consumer safety is Samsung's highest priority. With regard to the Galaxy Note7, we are asking owners to take advantage of the Product Exchange Program announced on Friday of last week,” .

Samsung issued the recall last week in 10 countries after 35 instances of Note 7s exploding or catching fire. Customers who had already bought Note7s could swap them for new smartphones in two weeks.
