My wife received a text message from Onstar which said service the drive train immediately. My daughter pulled over and called me and said the car wasnt working and it was smoking. I told her to get out and call 911. This was a two day old car which during the course of normal driving stopped working and began to smoke, then a few minutes later was on fire. Thank God the doors were able to be opened and my kids got out safely. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
