On [XXX], my son drove the car to Wendy’s to get lunch around 12:30 pm. He returned, parked the car in the driveway. My son entered the house and while we were eating lunch the doorbell rang, it was the police informing us that my car was on fire in the driveway. The fire department was called and they eventually extinguished the fire which started under the hood of the car. The jaws of life were used to cut the hood of the car loose to fully extinguish the fire. The car is destroyed. There is no fixing it. Marion, Virginia Fire Department extinguished the fire and stated that a report could be obtained but they were positive the fire started in the engine.

I'm registering a complaint about the length of time that owners/drivers are having to drive their vehicles without remedy for the airbag safety recall N232404980. We were notified of the air bag defect, with risk of harm/death, in June 2023. Parts were not yet available for repair as of that time. We were advised that we would be notified when parts became available. They are still not yet available 6-7 months later in February 2024. There is personal risk in driving these vehicles, risk to the safety of our families, and an impact to the trade-in value and market for our vehicles. If GM cannot ready parts in a reasonable time, they should be required to compensate vehicle owners for the value of our vehicles plus the forgone tax benefit associated with having a trade with auto purchase.
