On Nov. 19, 2021 my 2019 Chevrolet Equinox caught on fire as I was pulling out of my driveway for a planned engagement, the fire started in the fuse compartment area of my vehicle right by the gas intake area, I reported it immediately to GM, my insurance company and the dealership where I purchased it, I’m still awaiting satisfaction for my vehicle that was totalled and I suffered minor burns to my hand in a successful attempt to keep it from exploding… GM did give me and my insurance company a incident number…
