yeah uh for the most part cars dont overheat and catch fire. you would see smoke from coolant overflowing onto hot engine before it catches fire. it either had something like paper or a rag under the hood or a fuel leak.

Do you think a fuel leak could burn that slowly for that long?

Pretty sure Citadel is a trim model, and its still called the Durango.
Edit: just checked, and yes its a trim model. I think its a weird name though.

Still haven't seen any actual reports of what definitely caused it, but I've seen speculation of random electrical fire, boiling trans fluid coming out of the dipstick and catching on fire on the hot engine, and supposedly the firefighters speculate that a broken brake line / hose sprayed brake fluid on the hot engine.

Yup, you're right. When I first saw the video it was labeled as Chrysler Citadel and I just assumed that ChryCo had just relabeled the new Durango and released their own model as well. Updated the title.

I'm impressed, those people just hung out and watched the flames get bigger!!! No one wanted to give up their front row seat.
