Consumer Description

I HAD DROPPED MY DAUGHTER OFF AT SCHOOL THEN WENT TO THE GAS STATION AND I SMELLED SOMETHING LIKE IT WAS BURNING AND I THOUGHT IT WAS OUT SIDE. WHEN I CAME OUT OF THE GAS STATION THERE WAS SMOKE ROLLING OUT OF MY HUMMER . I HAD JUMPED IN AND MOVED THE VEHICLE AWAY FROM THE PUMPS SO THEY WOULD NOT BLOW UP AND HURT THE PATRONS AROUND US. THE FIRE DEPT CAME AND SO DID THE POLICE. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE BLOW HAD STARTED FROM BEHIND THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT AND WAS ON FIRE. *TR
