What owners wrote
When I was driving down the street, I noticed smoke coming from the hood then flames . I parked off to the side of the road and open the door and took off running away from the vehicle. Loosing everything clothes, phones , jewelry important documents. I paid off the vehicle. Was happy that for once in my life I did something good until that happen so please help on what to do . I know I didn't pay off the SUV for nothing.
The vehicle started with a check engine light. Vehicle has 46000 miles. When cold, engine stalls at random stops at a light, parking lot, drive thru. Vehicle must be put into park and restarted causing a safety hazard and driving danger. Code flashes p0011. Dealer stated vehicle needs new sensor. $300 repair. This problem should be a recall, as a stalling problem is a saftety hazard and should be reimbursed by GM. Can cause an accident in an intersection by blocking traffic at random.
