description: I HAD AN ELECTRICAL FIRE IN MY 2014 CARAVAN, THE FIRE STARTED IN THE AREA OF THE TIPM MODULE AND BURNED UP A WIRING HARNESS IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE TIPM MODULE AS WELL. THE FIRE STARTED WHILE WE WERE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. I RECENTLY FOUND A DEFECT INVESTIGATION TO DO WITH 2008-2014 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY AND DODGE GRAND CARAVAN TIPM MODULES THE NHTSA ACTION NUMBER WAS DPI4004 AND ALSO STATED OTHER VARIOUS ISSUES INCLUDING THE FAILURE OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. WE ALSO HAD THE INSTRUMENT PANEL SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING A WHILE BACK, BUT EVERYTHING CAME BACK ON AND THIS INCIDENT HASN'T HAPPENED AGAIN. I AM CONCERNED WITH THE SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE AND WANTED TO MAKE PEOPLE AWARE OF THE ISSUES I HAVE HAD. IT SEEMS REALLY FISHY THAT THERE WAS A PREVIOUS INVESTIGATION INTO THE TIPM MODULE, AND THAT TWO OF THE INCIDENTS THAT I HAVE EXPERIENCED ARE CALLED OUT IN THE REPORT MENTIONED ABOVE.
