My 2011 Dodge Ram 1500

Asked by Guru87ZTT Jan 09, 2020 at 06:00 PM about the 2010 Dodge RAM 1500 Sport Crew Cab RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My abs light came on with the light in the shape of
an axle and I pressed my break to slow down and I
heard a pop and my break pedal to the floor. Then I
saw white smoke then a small flame from under the
hood on the driver side. I killed the engine and got
out and the whole engine cavity burst into flames.
Does anyone know why

1 Answer

I think that would take a forensic team but I suspect a brake fluid leak caught on fire.
