Consumer Description

WE WERE IN OUR APARTMENT WHEN THE COMPLEX MAINTENANCE WORKER KNOCKED ON OUR DOOR AND SAID OUR CAR WAS ON FIRE. THE CAR WAS OFF, SITTING IN THE PARKING LOT UNUSED. WE WENT OUTSIDE AND WAITED FOR THE FIRE DEPARTMENT TO ARRIVE, AND PUT OUT THE FIRE. IT WAS FOUND THAT THE WIRING BEHIND THE FUSE PANEL HAD CAUGHT FIRE AND CAUSED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE DASH AND DOOR PANEL. IT WAS AFTER THIS THAT WE FOUND OUT THERE WAS A RECALL ON OUR VEHICLE WE HAD NOT BEEN NOTIFIED ABOUT. *TR
