Also, wow that EV's catching on fire conversation got out of hand.
Let's just go back to horse and buggy
bruh word on the street is if you feed your horse raw vegetables instead of grains, he'll produce 2HP and more torques than a rx-8

What about other EV manufacturers? Are they fine? Sure sounds like it from what you've mentioned in these posts. Even though they are using the same technologies.

FACT:
VEHICLES CATCH ON FIRE SOMETIMES, MECHANICAL DEVICES DO THAT.

We've been over this, ICE cars catch fire too and way more often than electric cars do even when accounting for the fewer electric cars on the road. It's a few pages back but we did this already. In fact overall car fires are DOWN more and more decade after decade as recalls become more common place and better enforced by the government and as cars have generally become safer. I specifically called out THAT politicians claim without him providing any backup besides 'trust me bro' in a midterm election year.
Also, are you shitting me? 134 fires out of 2.6 million vehicles. By your metrics we ought to just launch Hyundai/Kia right into the fucking sun!
https://www.abcactionnews.com/news/local-news/up-in-flames/kias-and-hyundais-continue-to-burn-after-5-8-million-cars-and-suvs-recalled
Over 5,000 fires! Holy shit that's like...let me get my calculator out....a lot more than 134 if I did my math right. And lets math a little more, carry the 3, divide by 69, minus 420....Tesla has a 0.005% fire risk and Hyundai/Kia's under recall (just the ones under recall, not even all the ones sold) are a 0.08% chance of fire. But wait, that's not fair. How many cars have Hyundai/Kia sold from 2011-2019? Well lets just add it all up between the two brands for TOTAL units sold in that time span and we get 17005062, or 0.029%, now math ain't my thing but that's about a 480% HIGHER chance of your 2011-2019 Hyundai/Kia catching fire than any Tesla.
So would you agree we need to shred every Hyundai/Kia and shutter their factories? They're substantially worse! You need to get your head out of who's ever butt it's up, dig the shit out of your ears and eyes and learn to do some critical thinking for yourself and not just parrot whatever bullcrap you're being fed from whatever crooked sources you're getting it from. This took me all of...10 minutes to put together and figure out? I'm old and slow and bad with the internet on a shitty old laptop. Just because something looks like it's everywhere doesn't make it factual, it just makes it popular. I guess they stopped teaching critical thinking and problem solving sometime in the past 20yrs cause it ain't that I'm especially smart, I'm just a dumb wrench jockey!

Any flooded vehicle will have heaps of issues. This goes for both EV's and ICE. The issues that do occur are just different.
And I'm sure that it's not only Tesla EV's that are having issues after being flooded from Ian. No vehicle is ever built to get flooded.

Does your smart phone need to pull out hundreds of amps of power at a time then shove it back in during regen braking? No, no it does not. At this point you're either willfully playing dumb and ignorant or you are, but I'm willing to give you the benefit of doubt Mr. Poops Dick's.
