While towing the manual transmission Jeep Wrangler rubicon (transfer case in neutral and transmission in 1st gear) 4 wheels down there was an explosion under the Jeep with a ball of fire. The vehicle was incapacitated. There was not any smoke, noise or indications of an issue before and up to the explosion. This happened on a straight smooth 4 lane road at 40 mph.

Our 2021 Jeep started smoking in the engine and within 10 minutes burst into flames. The entire front end was damaged beyond repair / burned and fire stations had to put out the fire. My daughter, dogs and I were able to make it out of the car but very scary.

Vehicle is brand new and the check engine light came on only after 300 miles. Dealer diagosed the problem with O2 sensor failure and valve cover defect. The vehicle ran very rough and felt like it was about to stall. Search on jlwranglerforums shows there are others experiencing similar problems with less than 500 miles on the odometer.
