  Gasoline doesn’t spontaneously combust. Lithium batteries will though.

      I didn’t say anything about the ABS computer burning up or the Chevy Bolt (which is an EV) burning up, but nice mix of reports you got there.

      Guess what they all have in common? Every single one of them in one way or another started from a failure in one of the electrical or electronics systems.

      Again, gasoline (the raw fuel) does not spontaneously combust, it takes some sort of external spark to ignite.

      Isn’t it kinda funny that the more advanced the vehicles get, the more at risk of failure they are? 🤔
