NHTSA Complaint #10846093 — 2013 BUICK VERANO

THE CAR ONLY HAS 20,000 MILES ON IT. I WENT TO THE GROCERY AND DRUG STORE WHICH IS ONLY 4 MILES FROM MY HOME. I PULLED INTO THE GARAGE AND NOTICED THE FAN WAS RUNNING (ENGINE FAN) HARD. BUT ASSUMED IT WAS NORMAL FOR ANY CAR TO COOL DOWN THE ENGINE. I WENT IN THE HOUSE AND THE FAN HAD STOPPED ON THE CAR. I HAD TO GO BACK INTO THE GARAGE ABOUT 10 MINUTES LATER AND THE CAR FAN WAS ON AGAIN! A BLOWING FULL BLAST. I OPENED THE DOOR OF THE CAR, LOOKED AT THE DASH, SAW MY FAN FOR THE AIR IN THE CAR WAS AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL, TURNED THAT DOWN BUT THE CAR FAN OUTSIDE CONTINUED TO RUN. I RAN INTO THE HOUSE, GOT MY KEYS AND LOCKED THE CAR WHICH TURNED OFF THE ENGINE FAN. MY CONCERN IS THAT IF THIS HAPPENED AND CONTINUED TO RUN, MY HOUSE IS AN ATTACHED GARAGE, IT COULD EASILY HAVE STARTED A FIRE. I HAVE CALLED GM AND I AM WAITING ON A CALL BACK BUT I CONCERNED NOT ONLY FOR MY WELFARE BUT EVERYONE. I HAVE NEVER SEEN A CAR DO THIS. I DO NOT HAVE ON STAR NOR SIRRUS ACTIVATED SO IT ISN'T LIKE SOMEONE COULD HAVE DONE SOMETHING REMOTELY.
