Cherokee Fire Worry

ON SEVERAL occasions I have been asked by friends and even strangers whether my 1996 Jeep Cherokee Classic has caught fire. Do you have any information on this? If so, what are the causes and what can I do to safeguard against it?

I HAVEN'T had any reports of Cherokees catching fire. Perhaps readers can tell of any experiences they've had. In the meantime I will ask the Jeep people. I would suggest you carry a fire extinguisher in the car with you, though it's 13 years old and not very likely it will burst into flames now.
