1 Battery problem of the 2007 Dodge Ram 3500

Failure Date: 12/13/2008

At 35,000 miles the engine quit. I could smell wires burning. The box that holds the fuses melted with no blown fuses. They replaced the box. After 12,000 mores miles the engine quit on the highway and the fuse box caught fire this time. I raised the hood and saw sparks jumping around and a flame in the box with a lot of smoke. I quickly disconnected the battery and put out the fire.

Positioning of the vehicle battery and battery tray permits leaking battery acid to drip down onto the cruise control servo, vacuum lines, and electrical wires.
