As my daily drive to a shopping location i parked my car at a curb, i turned OFF engine, and i removed the key, i open and exit the car out the driver side door, as i walk a few feet away from my parked car, i then was alerted by people from a nearby business that smoke was coming from the bottom area on my car, i turned and saw dark smoke, and fire began slowly rising from below the bottom front center area of the car, UNKNOWN to me why the car was smoking, and now on fire, this was a fast burning fire, i did not know what to do as more people including a nearby off duty police officer joined in to help, then the fire Department engine truck and crew pulled up in seconds just at the nearby traffic light , as my wife and...

MY SON WAS DRIVING WHEN THE CAR STARTED SMOKING AND CAUGHT FIRE. IT WAS CLOSE AS WHEN HE GOT OUT THE FRONT DASH STARTED BURNING. THE CAR WAS A TOTAL LOSS. I HAVE VIDEO OF IT BURNING AND LISTENING TO MY SON DESCRIBE ALL HIS CLOTHES AND PERSONAL THINGS GOING UP IN FLAMES. I HAVE BEEN WRITING AND WRITING ABOUT THIS WITH EVERY RECALL NOTICE I RECEIVE. AND THAT HAS BEEN A LOT. I ONLY PAID $3000.00 FOR THE CAR BUT FEEL CHEATED TO HAVE LOST IT ALL. AND ALMOST LOST MY SON! MY RECALL # IS 090447. IT WOULD BE NICE TO HEAR BACK FROM SOMEONE ABOUT THIS. MAYBE IT CAN BE RESOLVED IN MY FAVOR AS I HAVE A BUICK IN MY DRIVEWAY NOW. I LIKE THEM, ALWAYS HAVE.
TRUNK LEAKS,FLOOR BOARD PASSENGER SIDE FILLS WITH WATER. GIVES FALSE TIRE PRESSURE READING WARNING,DUAL CLIMATE CONTROL WAS INOPERABLE

MY MAJOR CONCERN IS WHEN I WENT TO REPLACE MY TIRES TODAY GOODYEAR LS EAGLES I WAS TOLD THE TIE RODS WERE WORN SO BADLY THAT THEY COULD NOT DO IT WITHOUT REPLACING THEM TO ALIGN THE CAR PROPERLY. THERE HAD BEEN A NOISE IN THE FRONT OF THE CAR SINCE THE DAY ONE THAT I THOUGHT WAS NORMAL TIRE NOISE, BASED ON MY YEARS OF DRIVING (37 WITHOUT INCIDENT) IT SEEMS WORN TIE RODS AT 31,000 MILES IS SOMETHING TO CONSIDER INVESTIGATING. MY DRIVING IS LOCAL 90% OF THE TIME, 7 MILES EACH WAY TO WORK, 5 DAYS A WEEK. ONCE A MONTH A TRIP TO BOSTON. I TOOK THE OPPORTUNITY TO REPORT THE OTHER LITTLE INCIDENTAL PROBLEMS THAT DO NOT HAVE AN IMMEDIATE EFFECT ON MY SAFETY, THE EXCEPTION BEING THE AIR BAG LIGHT COMING ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY. I HAVE NOT REPORTED THESE MINOR PROBELMS TO THE...
