I was driving down the road, came to a complete stop to allow a vehicle with a blow out to get off the road. I started to accelerate, looked at the car with the blow out and apparently a truck in front of me felt the same way because when I looked up he had come to a stop and I couldn't stop before hitting him. I was going 15 MPH. My air bags didn't deploy. I didn't even scratch the other vehicle but within seconds a fire started coming out where the windshield wipers were, in a matter of minutes my car was enguled. The front of my car had little damage but the fire engulfed the rest.

When attempting to have all the federal safety agency issued safety recalls completed on my vehicle service repair center manager. Stated they only applied to certain neon's not all of the 2000's. I have yet as of this date been able to accomplish the federal safety agency recall id#99v043000, #99v114000 nor have I ever received the addendum referred to in the federal safety agency recall id #00v366000. In recognition of the recent problems experienced w/my vehicle, overheating, inoperable driver side window, horn & airbag system and my having also experienced brake problems, I feel these recalls are essential. However, they are going unrecognized by annapolis tate dodge.
