Consumer Description

I LEASED A 2015 CHEVY VOLT, I USED THE SUPPLIED CHARGING STATION TO CHARGE THE VEHICLE. THIS DEVICE OVERHEATED EARLIER IN THE DAY, I DECIDED TO UNPLUG IT AND TRY ANOTHER OUTLET. I CHECKED ON IT 20 MINUTES LATER AND DISCOVERED IT WAS STILL WARM. I THOUGHT THIS WAS NORMAL, CONSIDERING IT WAS CHARGING A CAR. I PLUGGED IT IN LATER IN THE EVENING. THIS CHARGER SUPPLIED BY CHEVY THEN CAUGHT FIRE AFTER BEING PLUGGED IN FOR ABOUT 2-3 HOURS, AND THAT FIRE SPREAD TO OUR GARAGE. THIS FIRE STARTED FROM THE CHARGER ITSELF AND CAUSED DAMAGE TO OUR BELONGINGS AND COULD HAVE DESTROYED OUR ENTIRE HOME. *TR
