What is the name of your state? Texas
Purchased my car on 1.24.18 Had my vehicle towed to the dealer on Jan 23, 2019 because it wouldn’t start. I disconnected the battery because I thought I smelled a faint burning smell and was concerned. Called for an update later that day and was told all was good but they hadn’t looked at it yet. I called on the 24th for another update and was told “In the process of getting it into the bay on the 23rd a small fire broke out in the interior of the car.” I asked why I was not informed of this and he couldn’t provide an answer. The manufacturer has sent out an investigator to identify the cause. That happened on 2.1.19. The dealer, investigator, and the manufacturer are no longer sharing information with me. I’m being told that the “Special Investigations Dpt” has the case but I’m not being told anything further. I need to know if I have any legal action to take. I have seen my car once since the fire and the smell is terrible. I’m concerned about the overall safety of the car now.
