Consumer Description

MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED RUBICON CAUGHT FIRE IN THE ENGINE AFTER DRIVING ABOUT 20 MINUTES AND PARKING. IT APPEARED TO ORIGINATE NEAR THE BOTTOM OF THE ENGINE. CHRYSLER WAS OUT TO INSPECT TO DETERMINE CAUSE ONLY TO TELL ME IT WAS NOT A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. THEY REFUSE TO GIVE ME A COPY OF THE REPORT. THE REPAIR SHOP WHERE IT WAS INSPECTED OVERHEARD THE INSPECTOR SAY SOMETHING ABOUT OIL LEAKING OUT OF THE ENGINE ONTO THE HOT EXHAUST. THE INSURANCE COMPANY HAS NOW TOTALED MY JEEP. *TR
