Consumer Description

I RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE, NHTSA # 18V229 FOR MY VEHICLE. REGARDING A COOLANT PUMP THAT COULD POSSIBLY EXPERIENCE A SHORT CIRCUIT AND OVERHEAT. IT WAS RECOMMENDED THAT THE VEHICLE BE PARKED OUTSIDE AS A PRECAUTIONIN CASE THERE WERE TO BE A FIRE BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. THERE IS NOT YET ANY PARTS AVAILABLE TO FIX THIS. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT DRIVING AROUND WITH THIS POTENTIAL PROBLEM. AND EVEN IF I PARK MY CAR OUTSIDE OF MY HOUSE, I LIVE IN THE WOODS SO A CAR FIRE WOULD LIKELY CAUSE A LOT OF DAMAGE ANYWAY. I FIND THIS TO BE UNACCEPTABLE AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF SOMETHING ELSE CAN BE REPLACED INSTEAD TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM, OR WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE.
