The contact owns a 2004 Chevrolet Aveo. When starting the vehicle, the fuel tank caught fire. The vehicle was towed to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact extinguished the fire. A police report was not filed. The contact sustained pneumonia. Medical attention was required. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.
While in my driveway, I went to turn ignition on, and car would not start. Radio turned off. It was not until I floored the pedal that the gas and motor started. It happens off and on. Also the key and ignition switch entry area are extremely hot. I am worried this is in fact one of the ignition problems that Chevy did not list or is refusing to fix. Please help, . it is not the battery. Updated 12/8/2014
