This is the first time I’ve seen a claim that ICE vehicles are more likely to have catastrophic fires while parked than EVs. Is that true? Any source?
These recalls from Ford, GM, and Kia are each millions of vehicles. And the number of these recalls is going up: https://turnto10.com/i-team/consumer-advocate/serious-park-o...
It's always been a significant risk; why do you think there are strict building code regs for the garage area of a home?
Far more often. Battery fires can be much harder to put out, but gasoline fires are no slouch frankly.
But still, seems pretty clear that EV’a are likely no more risky and possibly considerably less so in the garage. Thanks!
