    @imurbestfrienddd , thank you for your information!😇   I tried to find this in the Bug Reports section of AHQ The Sims 4 | Forum | Bug Reports | EA Answers HQ, but I couldn't come up with anything like your situation. (Usually it is the fireplace or stove that causes things like this, or else the compost toilet😅  ) .  
    Since I don't play on a console, I'm tagging our Console Hero @PoptartJuniper to see if someone better suited can help you! 🤞😊

    @imurbestfrienddd The couch catching fire does sound very odd. 

    Some things that cause fires are as @PugLove888 mentioned:

    1. Fireplace (upgraded!)
    2. Compost Container on the Toilet
    3. Insect Farm with bombardier beetles
    4. Space Heaters
    5. Stoves
    6. Grills
    7. Cursed Lot (also cooking usually)
    8. Probably something I am forgetting offhand

    Outside of the common things I am unsure. If it happens frequently, and none of the above mentioned items are on the lot, please make a bug report on the bug forums as @PugLove888 advised previously.

    @PoptartJuniper I do not have any of these things so I have no idea why it would do that,but it was pretty funny watching my sim die just by watching tv XD

    @TygerNight , good point! 💡 I totally forgot about that! 😮 Right now I don't have any Sims that want a filthy home , and ever since they adjusted the dust frequency I haven't had any Filth Fiends, thank goodness, so I didn't even think about them!!  I was fortunate enough before they fixed the dust frequency to not have had the Filth Fiends spontaneously combust! 😅

    @imurbestfrienddd Sorry you had to deal with something like that, it have been a lot of strange things that happen in the sims game with no answers to why it happen, it's crazy.
