  1. ?? Your point ?? Cars have been bursting into flames for over 100 years now. How is this news ???>>???

    1. Because 100 years later it shouldn’t be happening and considering how much Tesla can see that’s going on with their cars with all the software, they have no excuse in 2021. Of course they likely do know what’s going on and to fix the problem they’d have to recall all the cars and that’s not going to happen without a few deaths and government mandating it.

    2. @Do van Cars are still made out of combustible materials, when you have motion and rotation, you have friction, which causes heat…
      You seriously expect cars made in early 21st century to not burn? Really?!

  2. Why is this news today? This happened in November and the video has been around since then.. Sounds like someone needs a quick short on TSLA.

  3. The drive may have hit something that caused this, also the drive may not have been keeping the car up to date or having it serviced. I hate getting 1/2 a story, Why did he pull over, had the been hit or did it hit something??? Why did you feel we needed to see this??? How is this NEWS???
