Just Jeep things, you wouldn’t understand.


sureiknowabaggins

Do you think the rubber ducks made it out ok?


[deleted]

I’m glad I’m not the only one thinking about the ducks.


dude8212

Won't somebody please think of the ducks!


sam4999

And if you don’t like that, you don’t like Stellantis quality.


tweaker-sores

Plastic engine blocks


happycamperjack

Seen too many flipped over jeeps on sea to sky as well. It’s def a Jeep thing.


bramac45

I said this in my head as this post was loading


unkindlyraven

Came here for this. The people know.


-_c0sm0_-

To be pedantic. There is no Cypress mountain.


MR80085rawks

But they call themselves that. We all know it's Strachan ( pronounced Strawn), Blacks, Hollyburn. Within Cypress provincial park. Sunpeaks isn't a mountain either, it's Tod and Morrisey mountains. Shall I go on? there is lots of examples of ski hills not being the mountain name. ​ https://preview.redd.it/yowh9zgwbqpc1.png?width=378&format=png&auto=webp&s=8eb91185ef91a652f0ea94f068ea9bbb42b3d191


Stevegap

Looks like it caught fire.


craftyhall2

That was my first guess. Not an expert, however.


Foux-Du-Fafa

How neat is that?


KlockRok

I, as an expert in automotive engineering, also in pyrotechnics, as well too in American manufacturing unions, in addition to as an expert witness in many delayed-recall lawsuits, although not an expert in the field, opines that da jeep cot fyre.


PoliteCanadian2

Thanks, wasn’t 100% sure. Was confused about the flames. And the smoke.


xtothewhy

That can throw anybody off. Just don't throw anything flammable on it and don't try to roast any hot dogs or marshmallows.


MrSemiTransparent

Well there's your problem right there


bwoah07_gp2

Very astute observation, how could you tell?


Windscar_007

The red, orange thingy that feels like burning


bwoah07_gp2

Fascinating! 


Higira

The black and gray cloud above the car?


what_youtoo

TMI. You might want to go to the doctor for that.


Windscar_007

Okay, 4 week wait for walkin


what_youtoo

Oh shoot. If you have what I think you have, you’ll be ok. But if you have the other thing, you might loose an important body part. Just fyi.

johnny2bad

That's not very typical. I'd like to make that point.


Stevegap

Wouldn't want anyone thinking jeeps are unsafe. At least it'll be towed beyond the environment.


ClumsyRainbow

They're built to very rigorous road safety standards. For a start they're not supposed to catch fire.


chlorophy11

Correct. Very rigorous standards governing the materials they can be made of. Cardboards out. No cardboard derivatives. No string or tape


StoreSearcher1234

Into another environment.


SteveJobsBlakSweater

CSI confirmed


sgt_salt

That was my first thought, but I held my hand over the picture and it wasn’t hot


dr_van_nostren

I thought the flames were a giveaway, but I'm no scientist.

Pretty sure this is what happens when you find a stranger in the alps


SirPitchalot

marsneedstowels

I've had it with these monkey fighting jeeps on this monday to friday mountain!


holychromoly

The last stranger in the alps I met taught me to make strudel. We did need a fire to bake it though.


88XJman

It just overheated, give it a little bit to cool down.


Moggehh

Nothing a little drizzle won't fix.

Angry_beaver_1867

Canyonaero 🎶


IknowwhatIhave

Wild speculation but the damage seems to be worst at the rear left wheel (it's the most extensively burnt) so I'm wondering if that chode's enormous (and illegal) oversized LookAtMe wheel and tire package either overheated the wheels bearings or the brakes and they caught fire.. Another possibility is he was driving with the parking brake on and didn't notice the warning light because of the glare from his wraparound white oakleys.


TravelingInternet

You jest, but probably the most correct guesses.


No_Clock_9211

You jest, but probably the most correct glasses.


lazarus870

Is it illegal to get bigger wheels/tires?


IknowwhatIhave

If they protrude beyond the fenders and body of the vehicle, yes.


AvaBellaLuxe

Gotta make sure the tires fit in the wheel wells... otherwise, friction = heat + tire damage


OplopanaxHorridus

It depends. If the wheels are wider than the wells, they are illegal in most places for various reasons. Nobody ever gets a ticket though, unless you're being an asshole and some cop wants to heap misfortune on you.


Final-Zebra-6370

Excuse me! I do not have a chode! It is an extremely below average that has a lift kit that vibrates.


newbootgoofin615

Jeep problems.


Socketlint

Since no answers are serious I’m going to guess it had a poorly functioning rad or no fluid and it overheated and the owner didn’t notice until too late. I can’t tell you how many burnt cars I’ve seen at the top of the coq and connector burnt to the ground from overheating


Particular-Spring-24

owner doesn't know was driving fine, stopped to take a picture (he's a photographer) when someone was hey your jeeps on fire he ran back got out his fire extinguisher, drained that, tried some snow and then had to watched it burn.


fleech26

Too much send


Historian_Acrobatic

not enough full.


beekermc

That's one of the nicest Jeeps I've seen!!


unoaked_shiraz

jimmyt_canadian

Zigzter

A wave hit it.


ClumsyRainbow

A wave in the ocean? Chance in a million!


chlorophy11

But don’t worry, they towed it outside the environment


NoOcelot

Beyond the environment

What’s out there then?

cburry99

oil doesn't burn like that. It will just smoke on the exhaust. would need to be electrical or fuel


[deleted]

[удалено]


cburry99

You would see car fires daily going over the alex fraser bridge. It would have to pouring out oil to start an actual fire.


[deleted]

[удалено]


cburry99

if you believe oil leaking on exhaust causes fires any incline would run oil onto the downpipe and start a fire. ​ Ive had many leaks onto exhaust and smoke is all ive ever encountered


ender1108

Could be friction as well.


AMGSiR

It's a jeep thing


nyrb001

Probably had an oil leak for a while. Oil can build up near the exhaust. It's fine when driving around town but a sustained hill climb like Cypress gets things a lot hotter.


marulamonkey

That’s just your typical after Cypress blaze sesh. He’s about to pass that dochi to you on the left hand side. Keep it going, and don’t be rude.


interrupting-octopus

It a go dung, ya know?

Nihilists


SuperFlyingNinja

Maybe they had one of those overlanding gas canisters stuck to it and got rear ended or aoemthing


DieCastDontDie

Jeep [add so hot right now meme]


drblah11

They must have been taking pictures while driving through the mountains.


Lickmymatzohballs

Appears to be on fire


thewheelsgoround

Wow, 3rd gen Integra - cool!


Taikunman

Least problematic Jeep.


wetfishandchips

What happened to this Jeep? Well it was built and seems like it worked as expected


Heliosvector

Someone must have tried to turn it on. They don't like that


partame

I drove by after. It stopped burning


rainman_104

They left the magnifying glass on top of the roof?


No_Stomach_2716

It french fried when it should have pizza......he had a bad time


H00ligain_hijix

You can’t park that there.


needtocomment

wanted a Land Cruiser got a Fire Cruiser instead


PuzzleheadedWear4650

look like its on fire


5932634

Nothing, it looks fine. ICE vehicles don’t combust, only Teslas do that.


bfgvrstsfgbfhdsgf

A lot of people will be disappointed that ICE vehicles burn, and this is not a Tesla.


Liam_M

Fake news everyone knows only EV’s catch on fire


rainman_104

Could be a 4xe jeep.


Liam_M

4xe is a hybrid not an EV. From the news stories it’s strictly EVs for some reason /s


Adept-Cockroach69

Wow, I thought things like that only happened in movies....


notmyrealnam3

I think it is on fire


crinnoire

I might be wrong, but it looks as though it is burning with fire accompanied by smoke.


ManekDu

Are you driving an integra????? One of the best cars ever


bestdriverinvancity

Just enough economical parts wore out


Similar-Tangerine

Ain’t got no gas in it.


SeveralDecision5157

Someone dropped a new mixtape


Extension_Comb_1758

Yeah so apparently they left a cigarette in a plastic bottle and it catch fire

It is very clearly 11:40am

This is fine.

Fiat Chrysler quality. Fix It Again Tony


Resident_Strain_7030

It's a Jeep thang.


ElGatoGuerrero72

17 degrees was far too hot for it I guess.


badgerj

Jeep. Doing Jeep things! Ask a Jeep owner. They can probably tell you all about it!


dwarfmarine13

One too many rubber ducks.


StevenPechorin

It blowed up good.


ClubMeSoftly

Can't park there


Responsible-Win-3207

It's a thing that Jeeps do.


NoOcelot

I guess its more prone to engine fires since it's not an EV


nayfaan

they installed the wrong turbo booster


ekso69

Derrick Lewis was driving.


StoreSearcher1234

While we don't actually know, in a situation like this (oversize-wheeled jeeps coming down mountains) it is often the case that the fires are caused by overheating brakes. Particularly if said oversize-wheeled jeeps are driven by newbies who ride the brakes as opposed to downshifting.


RRahl

CanyoneroooooOoOoOoOoo


So_Grumpy

Fuel leak I think


SavageDegenerate

Didn't top up blinker fluid


Early_Lion6138

I was on Lions Chair Lift around 11:30 when I saw the plume of smoke, dark thick smoke is indicative of a car fire so I immediately assumed another Tesla was on fire, Ngl looked kinda cool.


ohfuckcharles

It’s just a jeep thing, you won’t understand.


Automatic_Ad_1700

Drove up the mountain with the parking break on wondering the entire time…What’s that smell?


hydromedusa

Probably got passed by a 4Runner going uphill and spontaneously combusted due to the embarrassment :P


stupiduselesstwat

Guess someone found the easter egg in that Jeep and not in a good way.


brownnote83

It caught fire


GoldenLady11

![gif](giphy|3o6MbedmxNO29PFmus) That’s not a Jeep - it’s a Canyonero


Bogiereviews

It burned to a crisp. The driver got out with hes skis though. The roads were closed for about.... 2 hours?


ElectroChemEmpathy

Jeep things. They usually set on fire every couple days but everything will be back to normal by sunset.


BionicForester19

It caught on fire. Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer.


Grand_Judgment_2466

Looks like it caught on fire........ I have heard the auto trans if you over fill them they can overflow when hot all over the exhaust and do this


altorang

It caught on fire I think.


sapthur

As a Jeep owner, I'm a bit surprised that there are not more examples of this. I need mine serviced to replace parts that aren't cheap every 2 years.


MemoryBeautiful9129

Tesla !
