Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The rear tail lights on my chevrolet malibu are about to burn i can smell a bakalite smell when i open the trunk. i have been going to maroone chevy in pembroke pines saw the service rep ( mandy ramos ) complainng to him since 2000 and he said that there was no recalls on the lights. ifound out that general motors filed a confidentiality report and that way gm did not repair the lights. i disabled person and when i bought the car i knew that it had to last a long time. now i am fearful of it catching on fire. it cost me $ 25,000.00 to buy and gm has the nerve to keep ontelling me for the past 5 years that there is nothing that can be done. it could have been done back in 2000 when they requested the confidentiality agreement being approved, they knew that they had this problem. the report is ea00010 i found this out today online. the cost of the pair of lights is $ 500.00. tell me where i can get this kind of money on disability. the government is good at hiding things. maybe they can find out how i can come up with the money before i get burned alive as i am disabled.
