Sorry for you loss. I know it is too late now, but if instead of going for water you had disconnected the battery, the fire would of gone out. Team of firefighters at car fire, 1 tool to rip hood open, 1 hold extinguisher, another bolt cutters for battery cable.
It went from what seemed like a tiny fire to a big one in a matter of seconds. I tried to get the hood open but it was too hot to get to the latch underneath where the plastic grill was burning.
No need to explain...the monday morning quarterback doesn't really consider everything before telling you how you coulda shoulda woulda done something.
But, to that point, I'm real curious how disconnecting the battery will put out the fire once it's burning other stuff?
