Reported on Aug 26, 2007
| MY 1993 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS CAUGHT ON FIRE LAST NIGHT RIGHT AFTER I PICKED MY GIRLFRIEND UP AFTER WORK WE WENT INSIDE AND ABOUT 5 MINUTES LATER WE HERD A NOISE, WE WENT OUTSIDE AND MY CAR WAS IN FLAMES! WHEN WE CALLED THE FIRE DEPARTMENT THEY TOLD US THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON OUR CAR THEY SAID IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE CURSE CONTROL. SO THE NEXT DAY I CALLED THE MANUFACTURER THINKING THEY WOULD HELP ME WHICH THEY DIDN'T. IS THERE SOME WAY I CAN GET HELP WITH MY SITUATION? MY INSURANCE JUST GOT CANCELED I FEEL LIKE THERE'S NO HOPE FOR ME. I PRACTICALLY SPENT ALL OF MY SAVINGS ON THIS CAR I BOUGHT THIS CAR WHEN MY GIRLFRIEND WAS PREGNANT THINKING THAT WE WERE GOING TO HAVE A RELIABLE CAR TO DEPEND ON. THIS CAR WAS IN MINT CONDITION IT ONLY HAD 70,000 MILES ON IT THIS WAS ONE OF THE BIG SHOCKS OF MY LIFE WHEN I SAW MY CAR ON FIRE ALL I COULD DO IS CRY I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IM GOING TO DO I HAVE A FAMILY TO TAKE CARE OF AND PROVIDE FOR IM ONLY 21YRS OLD HOW AM I EXPECTED TO TAKE CARE OF MY FAMILY WHEN I HAVE NO TRANSPORTATION TO GO TO WORK!?!?!?!ALL THAT KEEPS RUNNING THROUGH MY MIND IS WHAT IF MY FAMILY AND I WERE IN THE CAR WHILE THIS OCCURRED.? *JB | |
