THE FUEL HEATER WIRING ON 7.3L DIESEL ENGINES HAS HAD AN ELECTRICAL FIRE ON 3 OF OUR VEHICLES OUT OF THE 28 IN OPERATION WITH THIS ENGINE. THE CONNECTOR IS A PUSH ON SPADE WITH A RUBBER SURROUND TO HOLD IT IN PLACE. ONE FIRE THAT WAS SEEN IN PERSON WAS SMALL (FEW INCHES) THE OTHERS WERE FOUND AFTER THE FIRE HAD OCCURRED. THE FIRE THAT WAS VIEWED OCCURRED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, FIRST START OF THE DAY AND LESS THAN 10 MINUTES IDLE TIME. I BELIEVE THE RUBBER SURROUND DOES NOT PROPERLY SUPPORT THE TERMINAL AND CREATES A LOOSE CONNECTION THAT ARCS AND OVERHEATS THE RUBBER, THEN IGNITING THE SMALL FIRE.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
