Most fires in diesels start around the turbo and that seems to be the case with the ED, although this one was in the middle of the night. Luckily it was not garaged. The sound foam is a sponge if leaks occur.
Good...Presidents pays off with FCA, Whatever you do no threats of any kind like I'm calling My lawyer or I'm not buying FCA again...granted your welcome to do so, but it damages cooperation needed to get it covered.
Just stand your ground....Even as adamant as I've been about the 3.0 short comings , I still Support FCA both in My Purchases and Investments, I want the ED to survive.......

Most 3.0s will experience Service Electronic Throttle Control, in the end it will cost $2-3+K to resolve.

I stand firm on pay to play...In the 3.0 case it well known that its failures are directly related to the rotating mass, if anyone believes that any Pressure box will puke your rotating mass, than you need to believe your not the father of your Children...Their is No relationship to the failure...
VernDiesel, Yes the 6.0 had a host of problems, Head Gaskets, EGR, Turbo, HPOP and and Fuel Injection problems.
The Rotating mass was strong and held up well, The VM 3.0 has many problem in common with the 6.0, But the 3.0 is leader rotating mass failures of any Diesel in memory.
