What owners report

I HAVE A 2002 PONTIAC GTP THAT THE ENGINE CAUGHT ON FIRE. THEY SAID IT WAS A LEAK FROM A FUEL LINE. I KNOW THERE WAS OR IS AN INVESTIGATION GOING ON SINCE LAST YEAR ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. I WAS WONDERING WHAT WAS GOING ON WITH THE INVESTIGATION AND WHEN IT WOULD BE RESOLVED. THANK YOU. SCOTT TAYLOR *TR
