Looks like a little more than the left rear wheel on fire. Oh well, that should buff out.

But seriously...that sucks.

Wow that's unfortunate. Looks like a lot more than the left rear wheel.

Any word on the cause?

Assuming it is insured, insurance company has a hefty claim on its' hands. Would be interesting to see if that insurer tries to subrogate back against the manufacturer in the event of some sort of design flaw or similar.
