2010 Jeep Wrangler Engine cooling Problems

“My 2010 Jeep was parked but running when a friend yelled that my car was on fire so I got out and looked and flames were shooting out of the grill and coming out of the wheel well, within 2 min the whole Jeep was in flames and was a total loss, the fire department responded but was too late, the insurance company said it most likely came from the transmission or engine as there was problems reported lately.”

“Stock 2010 Jeep Wrangler unlimited rubicon ~25,000 miles while driving ~ 25mph on a city street, brakes failed and I drove through a stop sign - I noticed smoke coming from the dash and attempted to pull the vehicle to the side of the road. Before I could, the power steering failed and I noticed flames from the drivers side window. I jumped from the Jeep. Fire services were on scene w/I 2 minutes and Jeep was completely engulfed in flames (around engine compartment) w/I 30 seconds.”

“I drove my 2010 Jeep Wrangler sahara unlimited through water that was sitting in a pasture that had been shredded. 30 minutes later my car was on fire. The design of the skid plate allowed the grass that was floating on the water to be pushed under the skid plate and around the catalytic converter, within 30 minutes the grass dried and caught on fire. I had 3 kids in the car on our way back from a rodeo and ended up watching my Jeep burn at 1:00 in the morning. Chrysler will not take any responsibility for this and has denied my claim. …”

“For the past month, after driving for approximately a half an hour or so, I have noticed white smoke coming from the engine compartment sometimes when I stop completely at a stop sign or red light. I have noticed this at least eight or nine times. I do take long trips and it is my daily vehicle and now that I have heard about some 2010 Jeep Wrangler models experiencing vehicle fires, I wanted to see if there is anything I can do to ensure my family and I's safety as we travel. I appreciate your time in this endeavor and look forward to hearing back from you.”

“The 2010 Jeep Wrangler unlimited was parked and running when all of a sudden it turned off. I attempted to start, and heard my sister yelling get the car is on fire. Once out of the Jeep I looked under it and saw an unknown liquid burning down to the ground from the engine area. I attempted to extinguish the fire with water but I was unsuccessful. Within minutes it was a total loss. I have real good video of the incident from beginning to end, due to the fact that my sister was videotaping a historic post office at the time turned around and was able to catch the incident as it occurred.”
