NHTSA Complaint #10021094 — 2002 CHEVROLET S10

MY FINGERS WERE BURNNED WHEN I TOUCHED THE INSIDE RIGHT-SIDE WALL OF THE ASH TRAY IN MY 2002 CHEVROLET S-10 PICKUP. LATER ON I FIGURED OUT IT'S A DESIGN FLAW. WHEN YOU DRIVE THE CAR MORE THAN 20 MINUTES AT NIGHT, THE ILLUMINATING LIGHT INSIDE THE ASH TRAY HEATS THE INSIDE RIGHT-SIDE WALL TO EXTREMELY HOT, WHICH HAS THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE A FIRE. TO PREVENT THE BAD THING HAPPENS, I KEEP THE ASH TRAY OPENED TO LET HEAT DISSIPATE OUT.*AK
