VEHICLE WAS HAVING STARTING ISSUES. WOULD NOT START WITHOUT A JUMP START. WE JUMPED THE CAR WITH JUMPER CABLES, AND THE ENGINE CAUGHT ON FIRE. IMMEDIATLEY HOSED IT DOWN TO PUT OUT THE FIRE, AND NOW THERE IS A HOLE IN THE TOP OF THE ENGINE. AFTER EXTENSIVE RESEARCH, FOUND OUT A RECALL BACK IN 09 THAT WAS CAUSING THIS SAME EXACT ISSUE. FOUND SEVERAL PEOPLE WITH THE SAME YEAR MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE, THAT THIS SAME EXACT SITUATION HAPPEND TO, AND IT WAS DUE TO THE RECALL. IN 2010 STOCKTON CHEVROLET REPLACED SPARKPLUG RETAINERS ON A RECALL ISSUE, WHICH WAS LINKED TO THE SAME RECALL. NOW TRYING TO FIGHT GM DEALER TO HAVE VEHICLE FIXED, AS IT SEEMS TO BE LINKED TO THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH THE SPARKPLUG RETAINERS WERE REPLACED. COULD BE A POSSIBLE PRODUCT LIABILITY ISSUE. *TR
