Yes — scattered but concerning reports exist.

Burning smells, fused wires, and even under-dash smoke have been reported.

Possible causes:

Substandard wiring insulation

Overloaded fuses

Cheap aftermarket battery installations

This is a serious fire risk, especially under heavy electrical load e.g., fans, lights, radios.
