NHTSA Complaint #10222689 — 2000 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX

RECEIVED SERVICE ADVISORY FROM PONTIAC TWO WEEKS AGO. CONTACTED LOCAL PONTIAC DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT A RECALL AT THAT POINT AND TO WAIT FOR THE RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL. MY 2000 PONTIAC GTP WENT UP IN FLAMES THIS AFTERNOON DUE TO THE EXACT ISSUE OUTLINED IN THE SERVICE ADVISORY. DUE TO PONTIACS REFUSAL TO CORRECT THEIR SAFETY ISSUE, MY CAR IS TOTALED, AND I AM OUT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS. THROUGH RESEARCH I DISCOVERED , THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS HAD THIS HAPPEN TO THEM, SOME 267 CASES REPORTED ON THE INTERNET, MANY HAVE FILED COMPLAINTS WITH PONTIAC AND YOUR AGENCY AS WELL, WITH NO RESULTS. I AM HOPING THAT SOMEONE WOULD BE WILLING TO HELP RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM. I AM THANKFUL MY SIX YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS NOT IN THE CAR AT THE TIME OF THE FIRE. I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR RESPONSE TO THIS COMPLAINT. *TR
