I WAS DRIVING ALONG THE ROAD AND SMOKE BEGAN TO FILL MY CABIN. THE SMOKE WAS STRONGER ON THE PASSENGER SIDE VENTS. SHORTLY AFTER FLAMES BEGAN TO APPEAR BETWEEN MY WIFE'S FEET THROUGH THE FLOORBOARD. WE PULLED OVER IMMEDIATELY AND EXITED THE VEHICLE AND SHORTLY THEREAFTER IT WAS COMPLETELY ENGULFED IN FLAMES. WE WERE IN SHOCK BECAUSE NOTHING HAD EVER HAPPENED TO THIS VEHICLE UP UNTIL THIS POINT. IT WAS A GREAT VEHICLE OTHERWISE. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED WHEN I GOOGLED THIS ISSUE AND FOUND OUT THAT THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON WITH SIMILAR MODELS FOR SOME TIME. IT'S A SHAME THAT SUNRISE CHEVY GMC IN BARLETT, TN HAD PRIOR KNOWLEDGE AND STILL SOLD ME THE TRUCK. THERE SHOULD BE SOME KIND OF LEGAL RECOURSE. THE WORKING MAN ALWAYS GETS BURNED NO PUN INTENDED! I'M EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED.

THE VEHICLE WILL GO FROM 2 WHEEL DRIVE TO 4 WHEEL DRIVE WITHOUT ANY WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED 4 DIFFERENT TIMES. I STOP AND PUSH THE BUTTON TO RETURN TO 2 WHEEL DRIVE AND IT GOES BACK TO 2 WHEEL.
