Was there an actual fire? Or just tons of smoke? Odds are there may have been a dust build up inside it and the heat grew to a point where it started smoldering. Only reason I could think of. Idk if Eb games would cover that if you told them that's what actually happened though ^.^' so I'd keep the reasoning on the down low until they give you a replacement.
