Consumer Description

DRIVER'S SIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR SWITCH WIRING CAUGHT ON FIRE. MY HUSBAND HAD TO TEAR THE DOOR PANEL UP TO KEEP MY BLAZER FROM BURNING UP. GM REFUSES TO FIX THIS UNDER THE RECALL BECAUSE MY VIN NUMBER DOES NOT FALL IN THE SEQUENCE OF THOSE THAT WERE RECALLED FOR THIS DEFECT. MY INTERIOR DOME LIGHT CAUGHT ON FIRE AS WELL. MY HUSBAND HAD TO PULL OFF THE COVER AND BREAK THE BULB OUT OF THE HOUSING TO KEEP THE BLAZER FROM BURNING. DEALER WILL PROBABLY REFUSE TO FIX THIS AS WELL. *TR
