“My 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue would not start. I put the hood up and told my girlfriend to start the car. When she did it backfired into the intake and blew up in my face. I lost hearing in my left ear for about 4 days. Car got towed to chance's automotive in easton, maryland. Since I have full coverage on the car I got a rental vehicle through the insurance company. Weeks later the insurance company says that there is a recall on my car. However I was never notified by any manufacturer saying so. …”
