| Description of the problem | I have a 2008 jeep wrangler with 30,000 miles. I live in stuart, florida i started out one morning with my 2 kids in the vehicle, we were not even a mile from the house when it proceeded to catch fire. I put out the fire, it was towed the dealership. After several weeks, chrysler said there was no manufacturer defect and would not fix it. My insurance stepped in and fixed it. I may be contacted. Thank you |
