Fire separation of garage

Hi Jerry
Are you allowed to have open wood framing ceiling and walls in an attached wood frame garage and house? This was an addition in PBC. Its open to the house attic which I know is wrong but is that and a rated fire wall between them the only real requirements?
I have found out the addition (1989) failed an inspection and the owner builder never fixed the problem and left the permit open
