Have any of you heard anything about wiring harness fires in the 2017 Ram 1500 Big Horn edition? On June 19th I was in my office and heard three loud bangs. I ran outside to see flames coming out of the bed of the truck and moving over the roof. I ran to get the hose to protect the house as I called 911. I had driven the truck about 18 hours before the fire.
It destroyed the truck. After the insurance company accused me of fraud and wanting financial gain out of all of this, they sent a fire/cause inspector out. He looked things over and said the fire originated in the driver's side wiring harness. They have it in a tow yard right now so they might investigate the cause and go after Dodge.
