2019 Chevrolet Equinox engine problems

While driving home from work at 9:30 pm on a state highway, my 17 year old son hit a deer on the front passenger side of the car. The airbags deployed and he slowed down and pulled over and smelled smoke. He got out of the car and saw flames. He immediately called 911 and his mother. The car was on fire and burned until fire company got there and put the fire out. Most of the passenger side of the car under the hood was destroyed. The car was a total loss. My concern is that car should never have caught on fire.

The contact owns a 2019 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the brake assists, and the check engine warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a failed oil valve. The vehicle was repaired. The contact was informed that when the check engine warning light illuminated, other warning lights would sometimes become illuminate.
