| Description of the problem | Jeep wrangler hard rock 2017 on fire 4 days after service! My 2 years old and i were in the car. Once i parked the car in front of my house, smoke came from the engine, we went out and jeep caught on fire after few minutes. We used 3 big fire extinguishers still can't put out the fire. Jeep burnt for 15 mins until firemen put that out. All foam went into our fish pond and killed all the fish! Brand new car we bought last year, under 10,000 miles, passed service from dealer 4 days before the fire. Neither the police nor insurance company nor jeep dealership can tell you why. Car never wrecked and totally no signals popped up before the fire. |
