description: I HAVE A 2001 CHEVY IMPALA WITH A 3.8L V6. MONDAY AROUND 9:45AM I WENT OUTSIDE TO START MY VEHICLE AND I SAW THAT THE BATTERY WAS DEAD SO I GOT A NEIGHBOR OF MINE TO COME OVER WITH THEIR CAR AND PUT ON JUMPER CABLES AND ALLOWED THE BATTERY TO CHARGE, AFTER WAITING FOR IT TO CHARGE, I TURNED THE KEY. WHEN I TURNED THE KEY I HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION, AND THE PLASTIC INTAKE MANIFOLD EXPLODED AND CAUGHT ON FIRE. THE FIRE HAD TO BE PUT OUT WITH A FIRE EXTINGUISHER TO PUT IT OUT. I HAD PLASTIC PIECES ALL OVER. I WANT TO KNOW WHY I HAVEN'T RECEIVED A RECALL ON THIS IF THERE HAS BEEN REPORTS OF THIS ISSUE. *TR
