Some national experts believe that Jeep gas tank fires could be the most lethal car safety problem of today.

March, 2026: New Fiat Chrysler Jeep defective gas tank fires are extremely dangerous for Oklahoma children riding in the back seat, where it would be more difficult to extricate them from a fire resulting from a rear-end collision that ruptures the Jeep's defective plastic gas tank.
