    It can be.

    Alot of these fires seem to point that how the DEF is set up is causing fires.

    Not sure of the how. Yey it is sounding to me like the canister that the conversion of the def and exhaust is close to flammable items. Whether wires or air lines. Yet there are quite a few stories here of "new" trucks catching fire on their own.
