Description of the problem	Normal use of fan speed control switch of 1999 jeep wrangler. The male tabs on back of switch break causing shorts and failure. Replaced under warranty twice. The second time was in new york on vacation and the short caused a dash fire in which the wiring harness had to be replaced. Luckily nobody was hurt due to close proximaty of dealership. Replaced a third time myself due to rejection by dealer and chrysler to cover cost. There has been at least three and maybe four switches since purchasing this vehicle new. This issue has been ongoing almost immediately after purchase. Chrysler dealerships in wilmington, nc and geneva, ny where fire occured kept old parts. All parts replaced brand new and still continue to fail. My fear is the switch will continue to fail and cause further fires and possibly loss of vehicle or personal injury. With the trouble i am having, i find it hard to believe there is not a more wide spread issue.*ak
