Genuine question - what does that mean? The cars are burning down the dealerships? o.O

And it's overblown and exaggerated.

There's a narrative being pushed that EVs = fires.

It's used as a fear tactic, and every time I've done a basic search, the facts show it to be proven false. Be sceptical, and use your critical thinking skills when you see these claims/stories.

See my post above relating to this specific claim.

And 10 dealerships were not burned to a crisp, as I already proved with a trivial search in my other post
