Lower intake manifold leaking coolant into engine, safety hazard, inevitable emissions failure. Many recalls regarding Pontiac Grand Prix with the issue

My car wouldn't start so I called aaa. The man tried to start the car before he attempted to jump it. When he turned the key, the car exploded and caught fire. Thank goodness he hadn't opened the hood because I was standing next to the car and could have been killed from the flying debris. When we opened the hood to put out the fire, the intake manifold was completely destroyed and in pieces. I ended up having the car towed and they replaced the intake manifold and the fuel rails costing me $900. Yesterday I went to start the car and it acted like it didn't want to start again but finally it did but I did hear a pop. When I researched the problem online, I found an article about Chevy Impala exploding but from reading the comments, it appears this is a problem with all GM cars from that time period. I'm linkng the article so you can read the reviews and can see that this is still an ongoing problem. The opening comment explains that there was a previous recall about this very same problem in the late 1990's. the problem is with defective fuel pressure regulators. Everything described is exactly what happened with my car on February 6 of this year. I now know I need to have the regulator replaced or it might happen again. I'm a senior on limited income and I can't afford this expense, especially when it's a problem that should have been fixed with a recall. Unfortunately, I didn't take any photos of the incident but I have the repair bill and I'm sure I could get a statement from the aaa person who was also present when it happened. Here is the link for further testimony showing someone wrote as recently as February 12 with the same issue.

My 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix with a 3.8 liter engine caught fire while I was out of state in detroit doing training for work. I parked at the hotel I was staying at after a short trip to dinner and back I park my car and 15 min. Later I heard two load pops (noise was front tires blew out because the fire got to hot) and looked outside my hotel room and my car was on fire and a co-workers car parked next to my car caught on fire there was hotel damage. Plus two cars totaled and no way home. It sucks! there was a recall on the car involving engine fires. I took the car to a GM dealer and had the recall work done a year ago. Nice work GM!

This is for the gtp supercharged model. Replaced the fuel pump and now all of a sudden leaking out of shrader valve above the injectors which is was not doing before. Online says there was a delphi fuel pressure regulator recall but after entering my VIN says no recalls. Although I also took it in last year due to the recall concerning oil dripping on the manifold and causing possible fire so unsure why it said no recalls.. I will attach photo of website claims. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
