Consumer Description
THE CAR WAS PARKED IN MY YARD. A TYPICAL FLORIDA STORM QUICKLY BLEW THROUGH. LIGHTNING STRUCK NEAR-BY SETTING OFF THE HORN, WHICH WOULD NOT STOP. SMOKE STARTED COMING FROM THE CAR. I CALLED THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WHO THEN EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE IN THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND A REPORT WAS MADE. MY DASH WAS MELTED AND THE INTERIOR IS RUINED MY INSURANCE COMPANY HAS DONE AN INVESTIGATION AND SAID IT WAS A FAULTY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. MY CHILDREN AND I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED, WE COULD HAVE LOST OUR HOME. IT IS STILL UNDER INVESTIGATION BETWEEN MY INSURANCE AND GMC. *JB
