Mate has a Fiat 500 late model made in poland , 3 months ago house burnt down with 500 in garage , middle of the night , guess what , forensics determined it was 500 that caused fire, re something electrical in 500 caused fire , another lovely FCA story .. These cars are becoming smarter than us n trying to kill us , apparently this has been occuring n now there is a recall .... I remember a 33 on fire in a garage but that was something to do with carbys .... 500 is bizarre
Well my first 156 self combusted on the freeway one night. But talking to the fireys it seems that it is not so uncommon for modern cars to ignite. I've started paying more attention to traffic alerts now, and there's probably at least one or two a week related to burning vehicles. All makes and models.
