Third Tesla Fire Means Feds To Begin Review
cartechboy writes "In early October, a Tesla caught on fire in Washington state — and that created a little bit of a stir. Then just before Halloween a second Tesla caught fire. Yesterday, a third Model S caught fire in Tennessee. With the third fire in the books, all happening in similar fashion, today federal investigators are saying they are going to take a look at the situation more closely. As electric car maker's stock shares continue to tumble, some are saying the fires aren't a big deal."

Old cars have a snowball effect. Joe Average does not look under the chassis of their 10, 20, 30, 40 year old car/pickup truck when they want to go somewhere. They just put the key in the ignition and if it doesn't make any unusual sounds, they simply go about their business.

Pedantic troll bait?
