2000 CHRYSLER CIRRUS — STEERING:HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST:HOSE, PIPING, AND CONNECTIONS

I PARKED THE SUBJECT VEHICLE IN THE DRIVEWAY TAKING NOTICE THAT THE STEERING WHEEL WAS MUCH HARDER TO TURN. JUST EXITING THE CAR I NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD I APPROACHED THE CAR, PREPARED TO OPEN THE HOOD TO INVESTIGATE BUT SOON FOUND THE CAR BURSTING INTO FLAMES. FAR FROM ANY EXTINGUISHER I CALLED 911. FIREFIGHTERS CAME SHORTLY AFTER THE FLAMES TOTALLED THE CAR IN A MATTER OF MINUTES. THE FIRE REPORT STATED OF AN UNDERHOOD FIRE. THE FAILURE OF THE VEHICLE COST ME MY TRANSPORTATION FROM WORK AND IN TURN MY JOB WERE LACK OF FUNDS LATER LED TO THE LOSS OF MY APARTMENT. IN SHORT NOTHING WAS DONE TO CORRECT THE FAILURE, IT HAPPENED WITHOUT NOTICE. I REPORTED A CLAIM TO MY INSURANCE COMPANY ONLY HAVING THEM TELL ME "THEY MUST DENY MY CLAIM SINCE IT WAS CONSIDERED AN ACT OF GOD" AFTER I REPORTED THE INFORMATION TO THE MANUFACTURER THEY TOLD ME THEY MUST DENY MY CLAIM EVEN AFTER THE FACT THAT THE CAR WAS INDEED TOTALLED BASED ON THE RECALL REGARDING THE POWER STEERING HOSE. *TR
