Firemen probably need additional training and equipment to handle fires like this. To be fair, petrol cars can burn just as good if they get damaged.
Would like a software update for the door locks though. Or even better, a mechanical switch.
- yawaworht1978 5y agoI have read that all Tesla's come with a mechanical switch, but I am not sure. It's true the same thing including central door lock can happen on non electric vehicles in case of a short circuit. The reason for the fires seems not known or truly established, else Tesla would fix the issue.
