| Description of the problem | I drove my jeep from home to work about twenty miles without any problems no warning lights or any visible problems. I shut it off went into work only to learn it had caught on fire about thirty minutes after being shut off ! The heater motor and glove box area is where the fire started. Fire department called it electrical? Contracted jeep (chrysler) about any recall or tsb but was told there wasn't any! This seems to be a major problem common in a wide year range of wranglers. |
