Hold a full investigation into Vauxhall UK's response to Vauxhall Zafira B fires

Closed 6,590 signatures

What the petition asks

The Facebook group Vauxhall Zafira Car Fires believes that it has found over 200 cases of the B model catching fire. Vauxhall UK have now admitted that there is a problem, which they are investigating.
Vauxhall has stated that “improper repairs of the blower motor resistor and its thermal fuse, which is designed to protect the blower motor system” could potentially lead to a fire. The petitioners believe that further investigation of the causes of the fires is needed. This petition requests that the House of Commons refer this matter, and the approach that Vauxhall and the DVSA have taken, to the Transport Select Committee for its consideration.
