| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The vehicle was parked for approximately 30 minutes. it had been running perfectly well. i noticed a minor triple click noise when i turned off the ignition but didn't think much of anything of it. after sitting off for 30-45 minutes, the vehicle was in flames having started from somewhere in the front of the vehicle. this appears to be consistent with reports of the ignition switch issue. we were not aware of the recall prior to looking for it after our vehicle was destroyed. firemen indicate that the fire started in the front part of the vehicle, but they could not determine why due to the extent of the damage. best way to contact me is via cellphone at 706-399-7825.*ak |
