Description of the problem	While working my mail route, only about 20 miles in, my right hand drive wrangler started to smoke. I assumed because the vehicle never turned off when it began to smoke it was something small causing the issue. I was driving 15 mph when this occurred. I pulled over, shut off my vehicle and opened the hood. There was a fire on the passanger side of my vehicle under and behind my battery, rolling under the vehicle moving very quickly. I immediately closed the hood, got my belonging out of my vehicle and watched as it blew up, and i called 911. My vehicle is totaled. I am now learning that this is becoming a common occurance with jeep! Why are there no public warnings!! Where are the recalls!!!!!!!! I and others could have been hurt or killed!!!!
