Beware 2017 Gator Caught Fire all by itself

Some of you guys might remember me. I am new and just got my 2017 diesel HPX after almost a month of waiting. Came home today to find smoke coming out of my garage. Make entry to the house which is full of smoke. Make it back to the garage door, open it, due to heat from fire I hit the opener button and ran out. Thankfully the opener still worked and opened my door to find my brand new 23k machine on fire. I didn't touch the dam thing today. I didn't turn the key on, i didnt drive it, i didn't do shit to it except walk by it. Damage to my garage is pretty bad, the gator is destroyed, and I am very lucky my house is still standing. When the garage door opened I had a hose ready and kept the flames down until the FD arrived.

In summary my 2017 gator caught fire all by itself. I used to laugh at shit like this and say how could that happen. I talked to my dealer already and voiced my anger. If this dam thing decided to catch fireduring the night my whole house would have went up and even killed my family.

Again, any other time and my family could have been killed. I am not happy.
