Its summer and car’s heating up, malfunctioning or catching fire is not exactly out of the ordinary. With temperatures touching 50 degrees Celsius and iffy electrical work by local car mechanics, you just can’t be careful enough.
We have recently seen a trend where cars catch fire and burn to a crisp. Whether it’s a New Honda Civic or an old Suzuki Khyber, for some inexplicable reason cars are catching fire and the government is mum on the matter. Car manufacturers have also shown no interest in investigating the issue.
Regardless, car owners should always be prepared for such a scenario as it could save you hundreds of thousands of rupees in car repair costs. Therefore, we have prepared a list of possible solutions when your car overheats or begins to show signs of a fire.
The most important factor in preventing an accident is to take precautionary measures. We have compiled a list of steps that could prevent a car fire.
Cars catching fire or overheating is common but people still have very little knowledge of how to deal with such issues. Fires in car are drastically different from the regular ones and should therefore be treated differently.
While such accidents, especially cars overheating, tend to happen more often during summers, the car burning incidents we are seeing today are not related to that. It’s either a manufacturing fault or something similar. The government and the car makers need to investigate the matter. Some of the incidents might be related to poor wiring and HIDs but it’s incomprehensible that all incidents are due to the same reason.
