After multiple attempts, the vehicle restarted, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to the second local dealer (lucas Chevrolet Cadillac, 101 s james campbell blvd, columbia, TN, 38401). It was diagnosed that due to ambient temperatures over 100 degrees fahrenheit, vapor build-up was in the fuel feed line and caused the vehicle to stall. The dealer stated that there was no remedy except higher octane. The dealer also recommended that the vehicle be kept in cooler temperatures and refrain from idling. The failure was under bulletin pip5507b. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and did not assist. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

As I was driving about 35 on a city street, everything seemed like just any other day. But it was far from it. I started to smell a funny plastic/rubber like smell coming from the front of my car. So immediately pulled over to check what was going on. It is key to note that I also checked my engine temperature, speculating that maybe I forgot to top off the coolant or something, but the temperature was perfect. I stopped the car, popped the hood, and saw what was to my shock just insane. . . A 3 foot flame that was burning up my whole engine compairtment. I did not even try to put the flame out with any means because the flame was located too close to the fuel injectors and I was not confident enough to risk it and try to put out the flame. I called 911 and in several minutes, to my luck, they were there and put the flame out before the car blew up. However, the whole front of the car and some of front interior is basically melted and the car is not useful for anything anymore. This was a spontaneous flame that happaned while driving normally at about 35 mph on a 70 degree day. What happened? I do not know. . . But what I do know is that cars are not supposed to put their drivers and passengers at risk of dying just because a person wants to peacefully drive down to point b from point a. Please look into this, whoever will be doing so. This kind of car manufacturing is unacceptable!.
