1Opinion of the Court

SIMONETT, Justice.

Respondent Carrie L. Tlougan, a 5-year-old child who sustained burn injuries while playing with matches in a truck, brought suit for her injuries against her parents’ automobile insurer, Auto-Owners Insurance Company, and homeowners’ insurer, Great Central Insurance Company. The trial court found that Carrie Tlougan’s injuries were covered by the no-fault insurance policy and not by the homeowners’ policy. Auto-Owners appeals from the judgment. Since we find the injuries did not arise out of the use or maintenance of a motor vehicle, we reverse.
