I called gm about it and they told me that since I lived in Kansas any claims past 10 years of manufacture they will not cover since the recall came out just recently. So I would say check with your dealer about the recall and see if yours is under any, because if anything happens gm will not cover anything for u

pretty sure the recall is only for the s/c engines. and your fire probably started due to a fuel rail leak.

if it caught fire due to a oil leak, that means you ignored it way to long. if you had no oil leaks, then it was the leaky fuel rail.
