Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2002 BUICK RENDEZVOUS THAT HAD BEEN HAVING SOME ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. LIGHTS WOULD SHUT OFF GOING DOWN THE ROAD, SECURITY LOCKING THINGS UP, DOORS LOCKING AND UNLOCKING ON ITS OWN. ON APRIL 6TH, IT CAUGHT ON FIRE, CAUSING A TOTAL LOSS. THE INSURANCE COMPANY HAS BEEN DRAGGING THEIR FEET AND NOW TELL ME THAT THERE HAS BEEN 232 REPORTS OF ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS CAUSING FIRES IN THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL AS MINE. THEREFORE THEY NOW ARE CALLING IN A PYRO TEAM? I JUST WONDER IF BUICK SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR SOMETHING IS THERE HAS BEEN SO MANY PROBLEMS.*JB
