Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My 2004 dodge durango caught fire while parked in my carport overnight. the fire started in the dash on the drivers side of the car. i contacted dodge/ chrysler about the problem. the only response from them was "claim is denied". i wasn't filing a claim, i was contacting them to see what they could or would do as far what had taken place because of the fire possibly due to a defective part and of course safety was a concern. considering the car caught fire in the carport and could have blown up and my house could have burn down while we was all asleep. thanks. *nm
