Replacing case after installing new Memory chip. The case screw near the battery caused the battery to explode and catch fire destroying my computer, desk and smoke damaging my house. There should have been a warning. Poor design and placement of case screws (too close to battery). Seems like I cant be the only person to have been damaged - a class action law suit is needed.

Welcome to the HP Support Community!
I want to thank you for taking the time to speak to us today.
I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post personal information (serial numbers and case details).
If you are unfamiliar with how the Community's private message capability works, you can learn about that here.
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Community.
