LAS VEGAS—Federal investigators say an electrical system malfunctioned, the autopilot quit and some radio communications were disrupted aboard a Frontier Airlines plane shortly before the pilots made a fiery but safe emergency landing in Las Vegas earlier this month.

No one among the 190 passengers and seven crew members was injured Oct. 5 on Flight 1326 from San Diego, according to a preliminary report released Monday by the National Transportation Safety Board.
