Underhood Wiring problems of the 2004 Jeep Liberty

I returned home late on evening after an evening of shopping, dinner, & movie. I parked my car in the garage and ten minutes later heard a loud "whoosh" sound. I went to the garage to investigate and saw white smoke. After opening the garage door to dissipate the smoke I looked around the car. I did not see any problem with the tires or leaking fluids. I did see black singe marks along the edge of the hood and black dust over the hood. The fire department & sheriff were called. The firemen determined that a fire occurred under the hood of the car and, miraculously, put itself out. They also determined that a loose wire was arcing with the alternator and disconnected the battery. They ruled the cause of the fire as faulty electrical wiring. The car is 3. 5 months old with just under 3000 miles on it. My brother-in-law, who is a retired mechanic, went with me to the dealership to pick up my things from the car and get a loaner car. He could see that the line going from the compressor ruptured during the fire. He speculated that the "whoosh" sound I heard was ac refrigeration escaping when the line ruptured and that the fluids extinguished the fire. I am waiting for an inspector from Chrysler to look at the car. I have an incident file open with Chrysler, #12193081. I also have the report from sheriff. Since this just happened, no resolution has been determined.
