A Tesla electric vehicle has burnt to ashes while at a charging station in Pennsylvania, United States. The EV caught fire at the Sheetz supercharging station in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania on July 8. There is no confirmation yet on the model of the vehicle but it is suspected to be a Model Y.
The fire incident at the Pennsylvania supercharging station drew a quick response from the Upper Allen Fire Department and other fire services. The responders included the Upper Allen Police, Mechanicsburg Fire Company, TEAM 200, Lisburn Fire Company, and Hampden Township Fire Department. The combined response was however not enough to save the car from being burnt almost completely.
The Upper Allen Fire Department provided a detailed report of the incident but the cause of the fire has not been revealed to the general public. While battling the inferno, the fire department shut down the street. It used a fire hydrant at the opposite side of the road and remained on the scene for about 5 hours, as there were fears that a reignition could occur.
There have been several reported cases of Tesla cars catching fire but the company insists that its vehicles are safe. Tesla published a report recently that claimed that its cars catch fire 9 times less than the US average per 1 billion miles covered. It is always advised that car owners utilize preventive measures to mitigate or prevent a fire from engulfing their car.
