Consumer Description

2008 GMC ACADIA CAUGHT ON FIRE WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND BURNT TO NOTHING BUT THE FRAME. LUCKILY WE ALL GOT OUT OK. PRIOR TO THIS OUR CAR WAS IN THE SHOP DUE TO THE POWER STEERING HOSE COMING APART. WE FEEL THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED THIS TIME AS WELL BECAUSE BY THE TIME WE PULLED OFF THE ROAD WE HAD NO POWER STEERING TO THE CAR. GMC AS WELL AS THE DEALERSHIP WE BOUGHT IT FROM ARE DOING NOTHING AND I STILL HAVE NO CAR. I AM OUT MY DOWN PAYMENT AS WELL AS 2 ALMOST 700.00 PAYMENTS AND I LOST MY TRADE IN CAR ON TOP OF THAT. *TR
